One of the most frustrating things that can happen when eating out is ordering one dish but receiving another. But if you go to this restaurant, you will take the mix-up in stride. 

The Restaurant of Order Mistakes popped up in Tokyo’s Toyosu district in a trial period from June 2 to June 4 this year. Its mission was to hire waiters with dementia. 

These nice grannies may get your order wrong, but the experience makes you realize that with a little bit of understanding on our part, dementia patients can be functioning members of society.

Food blogger Mizuho Kudo visited The Restaurant of Order Mistakes and had a blast. She originally ordered a hamburger but ended up having dumplings instead, but everything turned out to be unexpectedly delicious. 

Kudo also claimed that the waiters were full of smiles and seemed to be having tons of fun.

Now, after the trial period, one of the initiators of the pop-up restaurant, Maggie’s Tokyo (one of the Maggie’s Centres which support cancer patients and their families), are planning for another pop-up event like this to commemorate World Alzheimer’s Day on September 21st.
