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.

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!
Oh goodness. That's just disturbing.

it's too early in the morning for a post like that! ew! i wonder if people actually ate any??
Do you have to be over 18 to enter that hospital restaurant? The background wall pics are a little provocative!
gross
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?!?
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.
Definitely get me OUT of the mood for eating cake...hope whoever was making this was shaking their head the whole time!

Ummm... I think I just threw-up a little, in my mouth...
All I can say is ewwwwwww!
To the nurse on the left, I'd just like to say, "How YOU doin'?"
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...
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.
Oh, those crazy Brits!
Having an interest in the macabre, I love it!!!

yup, they're provocative alright!
i wouldn't eat that cake if you paid me....well...it would depend how much you offered.
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.
Oh, God. I don't think I can eat today anymore D:

My goodness, what is that??!! Kingdom Hospital?
OKAY. D: Happy hour, your post...it makes me want to vomit now D:
I guess it IS an 18plus restaurant...
-Sara
At least the bartender/surgeons are hunky. RAWR!
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?
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
Eww. Just...eww.
*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.
This is just wrong. And I'M Latvian!
The cake is really disturbing, but I have to say I'm most disturbed by the slide-along advertisement that hovers over the middle of the screen while I am reading today's post. :(
Jenn
Hey Jennifer,
I am so sorry. I didn't know about it and have requested that the ad company opt us out of all future floating advertising. I hate them too.
Sorry again,
john
I actually kind of like it.
Cannibalism by proxy.
JUST when I thought nothing could get worse than the internal organ or toe fungus cakes...
Thank you, John! You are awesome.
Oh! My! Gordness!
I am in love.
Redheaded nurses! Redheaded nurses! REDHEADED NURSES ... !!!
(Oh. They're holding something, too.)
Rupe's in love.
......................... Ruprecht
P.S. E-mail me whenever you have redheads in photos ... holding things 'n' stuff .....
Yuck! x_x That is gross!
Hmm..... I like tongue, I like cake, I get the feeling I should be ok with this combination. But I can't. Not to overuse the response, but WHY!? I really thought my worst reaction was to the foot cakes, yet I got a little grossed out when I imagined trying to consume the ears.
Bummer there's no decor for the girls.
Hmmm... I guess you could say, it's the cake that eats YOU!
Disgusting! The worst cakes since I have started reading your blog. How does that restaurant stay in business?? "Come on in and try some fake ear hair and noses...in chocolate, vanilla or Italian cream."???? And what are the entrees? Butt roast shaped like a butt? Toast with toe jam? Just ewww.
I totally have the same red wig in my closet. Now I should go ask the local bakery for a body part cake to see what they cook up.
OK. I have to throw in my $.02 here. I am Latvian, I've been to Latvia and still have family there. It definitely is an interesting place, but come on, there are weird restaurants all over the world. I'm sure if you went to google right now and typed in "weird restaurants" it would bring up pages and pages. I know there are a lot of interesting restaurants in NYC alone that would make this look tame.
I would eat the cake, I'd just pick off all the body parts :-P
Surprisingly enough, there's some awesome food in Latvia that you just can't get around these parts. Unless your Latvian grandmother or mother makes it!
Wow. This whole scene is disturbingly reminiscent of the scene in Elm Street part 3 where Joey literally gets tongue-tied... the sexy nurses, the longer-than-anywhere-near-normal tongues...creepy. And Awesome.

I forgot to mantion the pizza scene- I'd love to see an actual one of those in cake form.
In Soviet Russia, cake licks YOU.

It's no a hosptial. It's a restaurant called "Hospitalis"
still gross
wv...restu...restu rauch is the decor theme for this eatery.
Being a waitress, my first thought was, "I bet those girls make a @(*$ ton of money."
Oh, YUCK ! Some people find this clever or funny , even if it's gross and really creepy...can you imagine people visiting friends and family who have had surgery and then get those cakes pushed into their faces for fun and frivolity ? No thanks !
Oh, no ! It's a real restaurant...that makes it even worse !
I'm traveling to Latvia later this year, I might have to seek out this restaurant.
i'm latvian! i've never been to that restaraunt but they have crazy stuff like that all over! and about the murals... that's just weird, i can't explain that.
