Have you ever wished to have lunch in a restaurant appearing in a work of fiction? Here is a list of establishments where you would dream of being able to reserve a table.
When it comes to whetting our appetites, some works are very effective. Who hasn't dreamed of going to Andy's favorite restaurant after watching Toy Story , or enjoy a delicious burger cooked by employees of Krusty the Clown after watching an episode of Simpsons ? Filled with appetizing images from these various films and series, we have classified the establishments where you most want to sit down.
And we obviously start this list with Pizza Planet, the restaurant that appeared for the first time in Toy Story . True concentrate of everything a child under 12 dreams of , this space-themed restaurant offers its customers alien heads that distribute soda, a vast number of rides, arcades and games of all kinds.
We don't even know if the pizzas on offer are good, but we still want to have a look, just for the atmosphere. Note that it was possible to eat at Pizza Planet at Disneyland Paris, which makes the place semi-fictional.
Few fictional restaurants can claim to be as legendary as Jack Rabbit Slim's, from Pulp Fiction . Unlike the futuristic Pizza Planet, this one offers its customers a nostalgic experience.
Indeed, it recreates an atmosphere of the 1950s:you order milkshakes and burgers there, you sit in replica cars of the time and the waiters are disguised as famous people such as Marylin Monroe or James Dean. A kind of HD Dinner with all the buttons fully, in short.
Speaking of burger restaurants, Krusty the Clown's is also one of the brands we'd love to visit. As fans of Simpsons , we had so many opportunities to see the one in Springfield that we have the impression of having already been there. Well, it must be said that our desire to go there is more nostalgia than anything else, this fast-food chain not being known for the quality of its products, nor for the shady individuals who seem to be lurking around …
“Burgers! Wise choice, it makes perfect nutrition! ” Much like the Jack Rabbit Slim's, the Big Kahuna Burger is a fictional restaurant referenced in Tarantino films (Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Boulevard de la Mort ) but also by Robert Rodriguez (Broom Service, A Night in Hell ). As its name suggests, this restaurant offers juicy and huge burgers, whose flavor seems to strongly inspire Jules Winnfield . By the way, do you know what the American name for Royal Cheese is?
Impossible to make this list without including Los Pollos Hermanos, the fast food chain seen in Breaking Bad (and Better Call Saul ). The brand specializes in fried chicken cuisine, like KFC , but it is rumored that its illustrious owner runs a different type of business behind the scenes...
Sent to Vietnam during the war, in 1967, Forrest Gump meets Bubba. This young man had an obsession with shrimp. According to him, they could be cooked in a multitude of ways:on the barbecue, boiled, roasted, sautéed… We spoil you a little, because the film was released a lot of time ago now, but the young Bubba dies, this which pushes Forest Gump to create a chain of restaurants in his honor.
You guessed it, Buba Gump is a restaurant that glorifies shrimp , and the film is so cult that entrepreneurs have actually built restaurants of the same name in real life. And like Pizza Planet, one of these restaurants exists in an amusement park.
We totally change the atmosphere with the Vesuvio, the well-known restaurant from the series The Sopranos . Inseparable from the series, this establishment managed by Artie Bucco, where we can observe a huge painting of Mount Vesuvius, appears many times in the series.
Finally, we end this list with the Leaky Cauldron, from the universe of Harry Potter . Located at the very beginning of Diagon Alley, the Leaky Cauldron is an obligatory place for any self-respecting wizard. At first glance, the place doesn't look like much:it seems dirty and poorly lit, but the warm atmosphere that emanates from it makes you want to settle down and sip a little Butterbeer.
