While I was on vacation, I had some time to catch up on recent films. One of those was When in Rome. It's one of those romantic comedies - rather silly and unrealistic, but entertaining and you walk away happy.
Anyhow, one of the scenes featured this restaurant where they eat the entire meal in the dark. There is some tripping/hitting things because you can't see them, but I remember thinking how ridiculous the whole concept seemed. Eating an entire meal in the dark? Really?
Then I ran across an advertisement for Opaque. Located in San Diego, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, the concept is a reality - you go in, you're led to a room, and the rest is all in the dark. The servers are blind or visually impaired, and well, you eat a gourmet meal in a pitch black setting. Sounds crazy? Maybe. Feel free to comment if you've tried it. Just note that it's $99 a person.
