The Magic Restroom Café, yes, the Magic RESTROOM.

David Kelley and Tom Kelley of IDEO, and Todd Lefelt, of Huge digital design agency.

Then we concluded the show with a “user experience” concept that you might have expected to be a total dud. But no. Gideon Brower delivers a droll report about a new restaurant in the City of Industry; it’s called The Magic Restroom Café, yes, the Magic Restroom.

Gideon Brower’s story was supported by KCRW’s Independent Producer Project, and was first heard on Good Food.
