Just when we thought we’d seen all London had to offer in the sphere of novelty pop-ups, we heard about The Bunyadi. The restaurant, which is set to open in June, encourages diners to leave all their worldly possessions at the door…Including their clothes.
The dining area will be split into both naked and clothed sections with lockers available to stash your pants until the Tube ride home. The website tells diners they will enter ‘a secret Pangaea-like world’ which is ‘free from phones, electric lights and even clothing (optional)’.
