This is the story of the Nameless Restaurant.

La cuisine anglaise est exécrable. Moins abominable, cependant, que la poésie des Vogons, un peuple fier, ombrageux, et éminemment irritable.

In Toronto gibt es ein besonderes Restaurant. Sein Eingang besteht aus einer einfachen und schmucklosen Holztür, die mit einem farblosen Hochglanzlack bestrichen worden war und versteckt zwischen Mülltonnen und einer Feuertreppe liegt. Es gibt weder ein Schild noch sonst irgendwelche Hinweise darauf, was sich hinter der Tür verbirgt. Falls es trotzdem jemandem gelingt, das Restaurant aufzustöbern, findet er eine veraltete und abgenutzte Einrichtung vor. Wenn man sehr großzügig ist, könnte man es durchaus als gemütlich bezeichnen.
