German restaurant to have human flesh on its menu?

MELBOURNE - A German restaurant has stunned potential customers by advertising for body parts and suggesting that human flesh will feature on its menu.

“Donors wanted! Become a member today!” reads an announcement on the website of Filme, a new eatery supposedly set to open in Berlin, reports Der Spiegel.

The range of gourmet dishes on its menu is inspired by the eating habits of the Waririca - an Amazonian tribe infamous for its cannibalism.

It has asked potential donors to submit a form detailing their health and exercise habits, before adding: “After the medical check, you can decide which body part you want to donate!”

The location and full details of Filme, which is also advertising for an “open-minded surgeon,” have not been revealed and many Germans think the ad is either a sick hoax or a publicity stunt.

“I’m working on the assumption that this is some sort of a warped joke,” News.com.au quoted Michael Braun of Berlin’s Christian Democrat party as telling the Bild daily newspaper. (ANI)
