The lowdown on restrooms you'll be visiting

It's official. Eating Season has officially arrived.

Need to Go?Need to Go?And with it an endless array of restaurants worth visiting. If these hot spots (and their respective restrooms) aren't on your itinerary, get out your roadmaps and start making plans.

 

The Safe House

The Safe HouseThe bathroom is small, but large enough to feature a giant poster of Burt Reynolds at his sexiest. He's naked, of course, except for a metal heart over his favorite body parts. Give into curiosity and you'll set an alarm off that's heard throughout the restaurant.

When you're finished your business, slip into the dark room beside the stall and watch people in the restaurant walk by the one-way glass. If they stop to check for spinach in their teeth or fix a stray hair, flip the light on and wave.

The Safe House
779 North Front St
Milwaukee, WI
53202
Phone: 414-2712-007

  

Madonna Inn

In Umberto Eco's "Travels in Hyperreality," you'll find this description of the inn: "Let's say that Albert Speer while leafing through a book on Gaudi, swallowed an overgenerous dose of LSD and began to build a nuptial catacomb for Liza Minnelli."

And while the inn is all that is kitschy and more, tourists still flock to see the men's urinal - a rock waterfall.

In 2007, The Swirling Eddies immortalized the inn with their song, "The Midget, the Speck and Molecule," which describes the "urinal that looks just like a waterfall."

Madonna Inn
100 Madonna Road, San Luis Obispo, CA

Phone: 800-543-9666

  

PaperMoon Diner

Often described as quirky and disturbed, this trendy diner in Baltimore has more than good food on the menu. Remember the 80s movie, "Mannequin," with Kim Cattrall? What about "Toy Story" with beheaded dolls and kamikaze Barbies? It's the atmosphere, baby.

If you venture to the restroom here, prepare to be ogled by a life-sized naked mannequin in the restroom.

PaperMoon Diner
227 West 29th Street
Baltimore, MD
21211
Phone: 410-889-4444

  • On Canada Goes Green for St. Patrick's Day, Julia Rosien said "Great to meet you as well, Terri. And yes, we adore the Bay of Fundy :-) While I'll agree it's no longer parka weather in your neck of the woods, it's not quite string bikini weather either. Shall we toast to it and let the beer warm us up? Happy St Paddy's Day! Julia"

  • On Canada Goes Green for St. Patrick's Day, Terri said "hey Travel girls, great to hear that you love our Bay of Fundy here on the east coast of Canada as much as you love Tim Horton's ...and, as a Bay of Fundy chick, I love the green tide analogy. For sure, there will be lots of fun times down here around St Paddy's day but I just want to send you a correction to say you certainly won't be needing a parka? to visit at this time of year. It's +8 to +10 degress Celius (that's in the 50s F for our American friends) - definitely well above parka weather. haha So nice that the birds are chirping and the maple sap is flying out of the trees and, ultimately, on to our pancakes. Happy spring! Terri the Bay of Fundy blogger bayoffundy.blogspot.com "

  • On Bonaire - Landsailing or Diving, Ann Phelan said "I love when folks visit our island and immerse themselves in the very cool diversions offered..thanks for sharing."

  • On Tour Bus Crash in Tortola – Caribbean Princess Passenger Dies, Sad and heavy heart said "On a note about the roads of Totrola which are steep, and windy and narrow, all the more reason that tour vehicles should have regular safety checks, SEATBELTS (which dirvers should mandate use or not allow passengers to continue with the tour, driver's should go slow, and Princess Cruise Lines should do extensive background checks, and not hire people with the nick-name of Crash-Dummy."

  • On Tour Bus Crash in Tortola – Caribbean Princess Passenger Dies, Jan said "We were also on the ship with our friends, had spent the day at the beach in Tortola where the slider on my Omega came off, "broke" and lost. I had just purchased it on board the ship the day prior. But nothing can compare to the loss of a family member. The Captain had everyones attention for the announcement. Captain Draper done a great job informing the passengers of the accident. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Rumphrey family."
