Recently, I was watching a program on the Travel Channel called "Extreme Eateries" that talked about a peculiar dinning experience in San Francisco called "Dining in the Dark" at a restaurant called "Opaque". I had read that the restaurant was pricey but heck... you only live once ( Read more... )

Interesting concept. How do they handle diners entering/leaving, and going to the restroom? :-)

You call for your host/hostess to escort you through the premises.

Could be an interesting experience. Like other's have mentioned, I saw the CSI espisode that featured a restaurant with the same complex. For me it would depend a bit on how expensive it was. I don't mind expensive restaurants, but once I push past the $75 range or so I start to question whether the additional value I'm getting is worth the increased cost.

I've seen it featured on a couple different shows but I just can't past how pretentious the concept is, or at least that's how it came off to me. I mean, I have no problem with paying good money for excellent food, but this place seems all about the concept. BUT that said, you seemed to enjoy it, so there must be something there.
