Talk about dinner with a view! Dinner in the Sky, proclaimed: "Most Unusual Restaurant in the World" by Forbes Magazine, raises its guests a towering 180-feet off the ground, safely strapped to their chair of course, for a multi-course meal experience which features an amazing menu from sushi specialists, Italian chefs and a whole lot more!
The Brussels-based concept is truly a unique dining experience. Suspended by a crane, 22 diners are seated around a large rectangular table with a staff of three in the middle who keep the meal moving along.
What happens if i need a bathroom break? Well Bus boys will arrive via jetpacks, you simply gear up and repel down…I'm joking, you better make sure to use the restroom before take off! It’s only about an hour guys, come on, you’ll be fine!
For those afraid of heights, this meal isn’t for you. But for those with a penchant for al fresco dining though a little hesitant of eating aloft, fear not. A 130-ton crane will lift the table to a resting point of 180-feet.
At five and half tons itself (without guests), the table will remain stable and for the most part stationary (there won’t be any Pit and the Pendulum action taking place here).
For the guests' safety, each patron is locked into a Nascar-esque racing seat with a four-point seat belt. Surprisingly, guests have free range of motion (to an extent), with a 180-degree rotation of the seat, so they can swivel from one neighbor to the other with relative ease.
Dinner in the Sky will offer unparalleled views and diners will tower over their surroundings, with the tallest buildings in their sight.
At $500 a person or $350 per person (with price reduction) it’s a bit pricy, but this is more experience than meal. Diners must weigh less than 225 pounds and stand at least 4’ 11” to ride.
Where is this located? They have several fixed locations and also host different events at different cities all the time. I recommend checking their official website at: dinnerinthesky.com to see if they have it near you.
