18 Restaurants That Tried Way Too Hard to Be Creative When Serving Their Dishes

Most restaurants serve their dishes on good ol’ plates, because they just want their customers to enjoy their meals and walk out with a smile on their faces. However, there are places that put way too much creativity into presenting their food. They go as far as serving their dishes on old VHS tapes, telephones, sinks, and even their customers’ very own hands. These are just some of the situations experienced by a group of Reddit users. They shared their stories on a page as a way to complain so that, hopefully, no one ever has to eat on a ridiculous object again.

Bright Side created a list with some of the most bizarre cases where delicious meals were served on things that should have never been used as plates.

1. “In a restaurant in Canada, I was served pudding on (and I wish it was a joke) an old VHS copy of The Bodyguard.”
