Those with a penchant for doctors and nurses and without a fear of hospitals are flocking to a unique concept diner in Latvia. The trendy hospital-themed restaurant, named Hospitalis, sees chefs dressed as doctors and waitresses in nurse uniforms. Meals are eaten in a stylised operating theatre, on a dentist's chair or even in a gynaecologist’s exam room, served on stainless steel dishes and eaten with surgical utensils. Seasonings are added with a syringe.
Customers (or 'patients') also have the option to be tied up in a straitjacket and have their meal spoonfed to them by a nurse.

The atmosphere could be described as 'sterile' but that is all part of the plan, says restaurant director Marita Bundule. She says: "Hospitalis breaks all generally accepted presumptions about hospitals as a place where various painful manipulations are performed. This is a place of surprise, where you can experience things you are usually afraid of with smile on your lips, and enjoy a tasty meal."
