^^^ That's odd [[re. the restaurant photos). You don't set plates and empty gravy boats etc. out like that prior to the sit down for the meal. Looks like a 'dust' catching setting, more than in use, or eye catching!

The Himmelhoch faux restaurant always struck me as eerie, as if from a Victorian gothic novel, like Miss Havisham's dining table with the wedding cake in Dickens' Great Expectation.
That setting has been there for nearly 2 decades [[or more?). I remember many years ago looking into that window and the thing that caught your eye first was that there were candlesticks at each table, with tapir candles that had long since melted... they were still in their candleholder, but the tips were slumped over touching the table top.
Apparently that display is a sealed off room, with no ventilation... and the afternoon sun created enough heat to cause those candles to melt over time....

The whole scene seems pretty macabre. Just the opposite of intention I'm sure.
