O.NOIR: Eating in the Dark!


hello everyone this is Aaron from
watchmojo.com and we are here at
restaurant on water which means in the
dark and that’s exactly what it is
you come to this restaurant and you eat
completely in the dark pitch-black can’t
see a thing you’re served by waiters who
are waiters and waitresses who are blind
so it’s a pretty wild concept is
actually all over the world and Paris
London you name it it’s there and it’s
all the rage it takes about two weeks to
even get a reservation to get into the
place so we’re gonna go in there and
find out a little bit more about it who
came up with the concept of the
restaurant and how did he come up with
it well the first one it was George
Spillman he was blind himself and used
to blindfold his family and friends and
relatives so that you can come to his
house and he would serve them food and
they wouldn’t know what exactly they
were eating and so they would experience
heating as if they were blind themselves
and so in 1999 he decided to open a
restaurant with the concept that
everybody with
would lead in the dark and now you have
one in New York one in Los Angeles and
one is opening in the most what should
someone expect when they come really
good food first of all of course to be
served by line people guess that’s what
we’re all about you never see what you
eat or the people besides you then when
the food comes you don’t know where your
fork is with where your knife is you
don’t know where is everything in the
plate so you just try to guess it and it
becomes a game you start talking with
people besides you you try to make the
environment around more safe why do you
think that it’s so huge this company has
the mission to promote the site password
it creates job for blind people who
usually have a really hard time finding
jobs
the second reason it’s because it’s a
very fun place you really have fun when
you come here you talk to people sitting
at the other table and even if you don’t
know them you’ll start talking to them
because you just feel like there’s the
pressure from the visual judgment is
released when you’re completely in the
dark if a guy took me here yeah never
ever made I’d be like and four blind
dates
although if you walk up your blind date
in there and then you walk out and you
think you fall in love and then you see
them yeah but you can meet here first in
your bar and have a drink and don’t meet
a blind date that says to meet you in
No thank you very much thank you – and
that’s own water
