Poop emoji lovers unite. Toronto’s newest concept dessert restaurant, poop themed of course, is designed for you.
Poop Café, located in Koreatown, is the brainchild of George Brown College graduate Lien Nguyen, who recently earned a degree in culinary management.
Nguyen told the Toronto Star that she came across the concept while visiting her mother in Taiwan a couple of years ago, when they visited a toilet-themed restaurant.
“I’m trying to make poop cute,” she said in the interview.
The café will serve brown food shaped like poop in bowls resembling toilets, according to Nguyen.
Menu offerings will consist of traditional Asian desserts such as patbingsoo, a Korean delicacy of red beans served with ice.
“It’s funny to put food and poop together; it’s a great comparison,” she said in the article.
The café will also offer desserts from around the world that “do not resemble feces,” Nguyen wrote on her Poop Café Facebook page. She also noted she would not serve pudding.
“Poop Café is just a concept. Nothing to do with real poop,” she wrote. “I just wanted to make people feel happy like a little joke.”
The café is scheduled to open this August, according to the official website.
