Heard About This Terrific New Place In Bombay?

“This place is not about wars or crimes, but where people come to relax and enjoy a meal,” said restaurant manager Fatima Kabani.
I suppose staring at a huge poster of Hitler is a grrreat way to relax and enjoy a meal.

But why stop there, dear restaurateur! How about playing video clips from Auschwitz during Happy Hour! Call your strongest drink Zyklon B (how cute is that!), give your customers a special discount if they come dressed in concentration camp uniform and sic a dog on them if they don't tip the mandatory 18% for a party of six.

Here's the owner of Hitler's Cross explaining the reason for this unusual theme:
“We are not promoting Hitler. But we want to tell people we are different in the way he was different.”
Hey, Punit Shablok, idiot, didn't someone suggest the equally different "serial-killer/rapist" theme?

How can anyone "relax and enjoy a meal" in such ambience?!!
I saw this blurb on Reuters Oddly Enough link on yahoo.

ggop: that's what I want to know too. Who in their right minds would like to go to a Hitler-themed restaurant?
