Eating in the Dark

Forgot to mention this restaurant in Switzerland, called The Blind Cow, that is in complete dark, so that guests have the experience of what it means to be blind. THe food is not outstanding, but the thing is that you have to find your utensils in the dark, use your knife in the dark, drink from the right glass... the waiters are blind, and they wear noisy bracelets to announce themselves...
