I recently revisited a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode from 2011 where Larry David is dating the hostess at his favorite restaurant. Friends tell him, you can’t sh_t where you eat, or eat where you shat, but Larry insists he is above such mortal recommendations.

Things don’t turn out well, in the form of suspected food poisoning.

Things may also not turn out so well for British entrepreneurs who have turned a Victorian-era men’s public toilet into a café.

According to the Globe and Mail, the entrepreneurs spent £100,000 to power-clean and renovate the 19th-century public lavatory, turning it into the Attendant cafe in London.

The restaurant preserves many of the original features dating from the 1890s, including the tiles, cast-iron entrance, and porcelain urinals that have been turned into tabletops as part of the seating area.

The idea, according to a Vanity Fair piece, came to the two while they were at a nearby pub, looked up and noticed a “for let” sign on the ironwork of the no-longer-used lavatory.
