The nerd in me says - wow...
The economist in me says... I hope their food tastes REALLY good or they'll be broke in 6 months...
And to think I was kinda fuzzy inside just cos I saw Day of and Time of the Doctor DVDs on the shelf at KMart today... (as opposed to a specialst DVD stockist)back on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@The-Cosmic-Hobo
"How Doomsday Should Have Ended!" • "Bigger on the Inside?" • "The Doctor Falls - With Hartnell!"
"The War Games - In 10 Minutes" • "Announcement of Jon Pertwee's death" •
and lots more!

So I'm thinking... okay, New York... probably the CITY. No problem, an hour train ride from here. We can make a day of it. Been quite a while since I've been to my old stomping grounds anyway. I clicked on the link to see where it was, and lo and behold! It's practically in my back yard!!! I mean, it's about a 30 minute ride from where I currently live. Could have knocked me over with a feather! So, this Wednesday coming, we're going to head over to Beacon (the town it's in) and check it out.
Cosmichobo I'm with you on the 'hope their food tastes really good...' because that is pretty high for what they're serving. There's lots of good eating places around there, so competition is on the hefty side. On the other hand, the whole themed thing would be worth one trip at least.Last edited by raduzhok; 18 August 2014, 10:05 AM.sigpic

We got as far as the front door. The place was packed (it's a small place inside), but there was a very long wait. Since it went viral on facebook, it's become a tourist mecca. You couldn't get inside, because they locked the door to keep those not yet seated out. There were people waiting at tables outside. They come and get you, when a table becomes available, and take names for the new arrivals. We did look inside through the front windows, and they had a big screen tv showing either a doctor who episode, or a trailer of one. We'll be going back another time.sigpic

If I designed it I'd make do some kind of optical illusion hocus pocus so that it looked small from the outside but was giant on the inside.sigpic

I think your design would be right in keeping with the theme. The problem is the store front it's in, can't be expanded unless the owners were able to buy up the properties on either side. Then that would work. When I go back, I'll have to see if there is a 2nd floor. That would be even better... if they could make the space into a loft as well. I think they have mirrors on one whole wall, and paintings on the other. The mirrors would at least give the illusion of bigger inside.sigpic
