The lowdown on restrooms you'll be visiting
It's official. Eating Season has officially arrived.
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.

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."

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.
