Blind Leading the Blind

Blindekuh Restaurant in Zurich allows sighted people to experience dining in complete darkness. If you'd like to experience what it's like to be blind for just one meal, Blindekuh (Blind Cow) restaurant in Zurich, Switzerland offers sighted people a rare opportunity to be served a meal in complete darkness by a blind or partially-sighted waitstaff.

The experience has proven to be so powerful that reservations to the restaurant must be made months in advance and numerous other establishments have sprung up in its likeness since Blindekuh first opened in 1999.

This NPR piece by Adam Burke from 2005 details the experience of temporarily letting go of your sight for a meal.

Also check out Blindekuh's website for more details on the dining experience.
