Cannibal restaurant.

Yeah, smells like a PR stunt to me. I really doubt they'd be able to get enough "donors" to be able to keep a restaurant going full-time. I mean, how the hell would Germany be able to produce enough dead bodies?


What? Was that in bad taste or something?
 
Something about this story is eating at me, but I can't quite put my finger on it....

No, not a movie title - supposedly an actual restaurant opening in September in Berlin that will feature donated human meat on the menu.

I smell a hoax, but googling and a whois on the linked website (it's Tucows-hosted) aren't helping me.

Yes, it looks like a hoax. Cheap publicity.

Time will tell if this was a good idea.

It's hard to imagine customers flocking to the place, if the first thing they tell their potential customers is obviously fraudulent.
 
I agree this sounds like a hoax. I am under the assumption that such a restaurant would be illegal in Germany.

Here is another hoax about cannibalism.

 
my co-worker was eating a turkey leg today, and I said to him "I thought you were against cannibalism".

:)
 
Cannibalism is explicitly not illegal in Germany .. there was this criminal trial some time back where a guy had eaten his friend, allegedly his friend's wish. I recall that the 'eater' could not be indicted for cannibalism. Necrophilia is not illegal in Germany as well.

figures..
 
I'm reminded of that superb short story by Stanley Ellin: The Specialty of the House. Favored customers are invited into the kitchen where they are killed and served to the other diners.

They could serve Jew meat. Of course, you could only order them oven baked. Nothing sautéed or poached.
