Mannequins for Dinner
I find this weird. How about you?
Instead of letting tables sit vacant, the whimsical chef plans to outfit his dining rooms with mannequins. That’s right, life-size human dolls—kind of like that scene in Home Alone when Kevin throws a mannequin holiday party to fool the burglars. The chef (who majored in drama in college) has been working with Shirlington’s Signature Theatre to get the faux humans costumed in 1940s-era garb. Servers will be instructed to pour them wine and to ask them about their evening. Here’s hoping the actual diners don’t have any doll phobias.
Full story:
Personally, I would be more comfortable with 50% of the tables being unused/empty rather than being filled with fake diners dressed like my ancestors.
And those "pour them wine" and "ask about their evening" parts.
I find that exceptionally weird.
Grace & Peace & Love to you all -
Matt
