Hey Nurse, Slip Me Some Tongue!
March 7, 2009 No, I'm not making a move on a medical professional; I'm just ordering some cake, Latvian style.
Check it:
According to the UK Telegraph:
"At the Hospitalis Restaurant in Riga, Latvia, staff dressed in nurse uniforms serve up a macabre cake topped with realistic-looking body parts such as fingers, noses and tongues..."
Yummy. I particularly like the tongues draping over the edge. And is that... ear hair?
Plus, with all those noses you know it has to smell funny.
(bah-dum-bump!)
Uh, Joyce? Check, please.

Oh goodness. That's just disturbing.

I don't know what disturbs me the most. The creepy, disembodied, floppy, hairy, and bloody body part pizza cakes, or the bizarre murals on the walls!!! YIKES!
it's too early in the morning for a post like that! ew! i wonder if people actually ate any??
gross
Do you have to be over 18 to enter that hospital restaurant? The background wall pics are a little provocative!
One word.
EWWWWWWWW!
Whoa. I was about to go eat breakfast... but I just lost my appetite. And that takes a lot of doing. Those tongues just look so real!
um, what the hell is going on on the mural in the background?
And what's up with the wall decor? Is that a leg behind that woman? Is it supposed to be the front or the back of a person? And they are naked?!? Who has that on their hospital restaurant wall?!?
Ummm... I think I just threw-up a little, in my mouth...
Definitely get me OUT of the mood for eating cake...hope whoever was making this was shaking their head the whole time!

Did you read that they make you sign an indemnity waiver to eat there? Their other dishes look like removed body parts and beer comes in a urine sample cup~! Can you imagine what milk might come in to eat with your cake? Great find.
All I can say is ewwwwwww!
Who would ever come up with an idea like this...I'm trying to figure out if those lines on the cake are supposed to be surgical scars or something...
To the nurse on the left, I'd just like to say, "How YOU doin'?"
Hey, I'd eat it. I love disgusting body parts!
Get a load of this... word verification: "spook"
Vomit.
Oh, Latvia... out-weirding everybody in the world since, well, I don't want to know when.
Wow. I mean... wow. That... is just... great. Oh, those wacky Latvians!
Of course, they could always partner up with this guy: http://inventorspot.com/articles/body_bread_13546
And the Latvians wonder why they're not a major power broker on the world stage!
Disturbing to me on many levels. Not only is this just gross, the placement of the body parts is unbalanced.

yup, they're provocative alright!
i wouldn't eat that cake if you paid me....well...it would depend how much you offered.
Oh, those crazy Brits!
Having an interest in the macabre, I love it!!!

This is definatly not a family-friendly restaurant. Not only the cake and wall decor but did anybody else notice how short the nurses skirts are?
I lived in Riga Latvia several years ago and NEVER saw anything like that there. Although, I probably would have gone to eat there just to say I did. And, don't let that awful cake sway you. I think their cuisine is quite good.
My goodness, what is that??!! Kingdom Hospital?
Oh, God. I don't think I can eat today anymore D:

OKAY. D: Happy hour, your post...it makes me want to vomit now D:
I guess it IS an 18plus restaurant...
-Sara
WOW !! I made Cake Wrecks!!! I thought I'd be one of a hundred who submitted Dave Barry's link to the story. WOW ! Amazing. Good cake for Halloween, eh?
Thanks! Y'all made my day! I just showed my husband, "look, honey, I made Cake Wrecks"---and he said, "what is it??" body parts
Glenn Beck was doing a cake in his chin skit on Fox today---anyone wanna screen grab it?
At least the bartender/surgeons are hunky. RAWR!
Eww. Just...eww.
Of all of the disgusting cakes you've posted, this is the one that brought me closest to barfing. Yuck!
Word verification: ingent, what I DON'T want to do with this cake
*Gag*
First time I've ever rolled over the photos w/out looking at them. Some of us are having breakfast... ugh!
My 6 year old son thinks it's great! HA!
oh .. AWFUL.
I WAS eating...
Um, yeah....the last thing I need is my cake tounging me back.
I think it's actually pretty neat, but that's just me apparently.
Wow...uh...{urp}
I don't have anything to say.
Yes I do.
Gross!
Sara, if you thought that was gross, you should read the rest of the article. I left out the BEST bits~! The article was hysterical.
The words "why? WHY?" keep echoing through my head.
I'll let you know if the other voices in there come up with an answer.
Ugh! Who eats here?! Hannibal Lecter?
I would *totally* eat there.
What? It's CAKE y'all!
WHY???????
I'm desperately hoping that one day all these cake decorators get the memo: Body parts don't belong on cakes!!!
That is Insanely Awesome! I can see where some people would see it as wrecky, but I say it would be a fantastic way to keep most people away from my cake! Except my closest friends, of course. They are as twisted and macabre as I am.
Oh my God! It's Eddie Gein's birthday cake!
*runs screaming from the room*
The walls might have to be censored...
I'm glad my cake just had Sailor Moon.
Leave it to the pervs at The Telegraph to use the word "uniform" when "costume" would be more accurate. They've played doctor a few times too many.
Latvia may be ahead of the curve in having a fantasy restaurant that's not your standard middle ages or other safe themes. In Europe. Japan has had the niche & outre stuff for some time now. Some of it goes way over the top.
Chubby (by Japanese standards) maids in anime-baroque outfits not only taking your orders but also doing the cooking. AKA Gothic Lolita (which has nothing to with underage girls). Various flavors of Alice in Wonderland, frequently Gothic Lolita, with equally strange food. Vampire restaurants. Ninja restaurants. Prison restaurants.
Don't drop your utensils in that last one.
GAK...GAK...GAK...URP
WV: CONDFALL: My eyeballs condfall out after seeing this.
