A. Competing for customers Sometimes the gimmick is the restaurant's location. El Diablo, on the Spanish island of Lanzarote, is on a volcano. The chef uses heat from the volcano to cook the food. Or how about an underwater restaurant? At Ithaa, a restaurant in the Maldives, you can have dinner five metres below the Indian Ocean and watch sharks and turtles while you eat. Or you can go to the other extreme and choose Dinner in the Sky. Here, customers enjoy their meal at a special table 50 metres in the air. The company has restaurants in 45 different countries. It's an amazing experience -but don't drop your knife or fork! There are hundreds of restaurants in every big city. They often serve similar food at similar prices -so how do they attract customers? Most restaurants try to offer good food and great service -and they hope customers come back again and again. But some restaurants offer a gimmick -something unusual to make their restaurant different from all the others. People often complain about the seats in aeroplanes: they're uncomfortable and there isn't enough space. So surely a restaurant inside and aeroplane is a bad idea. Well maybe not. In Accra, the capital of Ghana, you can have lunch or dinner inside an old DC-10 aeroplane. The waiter brings your food and drink on a trolley! Other restaurants offer extra confort. At the Hammock Café in Sri Lanka, there are hammocks instead of chairs. And at B.E.D. in Miami, Florida, there are only beds. On each bed there is a candle and a tray. People go to restaurants to eat, chat with their friends and relax. But some restaurants ask their customers to catch their own food. Zauo is a popular restaurant in Tokyo, Japan. It is a fish restaurant, but the customers do not order their fish from the menu -they have to catch it. Inside the restaurant, all of the tables are on an artificial boat, with water all around. There are different fish in different parts of the water. They choose their fish and then try to catch it!
