50 meters up in the air
A table, 9m x 5m
Diners hang from a crane
There isn't a loo
Dinner in the sky is for people who want more than a little excitement when they go out to eat. They sit at a huge table which hangs from a crane fifty meters in the air. It's not a good idea for people who are afraid of heights or for those who don't have much money. It costs 10,000 pounds. The twenty-two diners wear seat belts and relax and enjoy the views while the chefs prepare the finest food in front of them. The restaurant opened in Belgium in 2006, but now has branches in :
PARIS

And more from the different countries in the world.
Some people says they realized that people were bored with going to the same old restaurants. They wanted to try something different . The sky's the limit with them.
Before opening the Dinner In The Sky Restaurant, the crane is checked carefully every sitting. The table is 9m x 5m and weighs six tonnes. In the center, there is a sunken platform for the chef and two waiters. The food is delicious, but most guests don't feel like eating until after a few drinks. Then they also get the courage to look down at the ground where tiny people are looking up in amazement and waving.
Dinner in the sky is very exciting and the food is good, but there are problems. For example, even in quiet weather conversation is difficult because of the wind. Guests shout to each other across the table. Also, the loo. You can't go to the loo until the table descends again. It's difficult for some but, later back on earth, after a visit to the loo, the guests have a great experience to talk about and never will they forget about it.
Not an ordinary place to eat but it's a wonderful place like heaven.
