In my novel Crosscut, Evan Delaney and Jesse Blackburn engage in a philosophical discussion about the uses of fantasy. They explore various tropes, talk about common themes in fantasy, and analyze its ubiquity across cultures, its roots in ancient myth, etcetera.
Fine, they reveal their kinky fantasies. Bikers, French maids, and so on. Jesse categorically declares that the Naughty Nurse scenario is not and can never be sexy.
Well, he’ll have no fun if he ever goes to Latvia.
Hospital Fetish Restaurant in Latvia.
Hospitalis in Riga, Latvia, [is] a hospital themed restaurant where, “the food is served in syringes, flasks and operating-room dishes, and customers can be tied up in straight jackets.” The waitresses all wear fetish-nurse outfits and Milla-Jovavich-in-Fifth-Element red wigs.
“The place is owned by local doctors, but unfortunately, the president of Latvia, who is also a doctor, declined his appearance at the opening once he realized how weird this place actually is.”
My books are soon to be published in Latvian translation. I can’t wait to see the covers.
I prefer the naughty librarian look that Sarah Palin brought back in vogue.
I’d prefer “strait jackets” because, what with having sleeves and all, they aren’t “straight,” although the patrons may very well be.
Oh yuck. And do they serve hospital food too? That would include rubbery jello and oatmeal–yum! And the dishes? Hmm, bedpans, barfpans, receptacles meant for body parts–will we be serving sweetbreads?Apparently an acquired taste, huh?
