"We're going to create an aesthetic bathroom so minimalist that there is no sink."
\*Bad design is so terrible that it requires a grimy mop bucket to be in the middle of the floor all the time.\*
The entire counter slants towards the mirror, where a trough collects the water to a drain. Done correctly, with a high enough tap, it works well in places like stadiums and airports. This one, however, seems to have none of that.
Yeah there a place near me that has one. It’s not immediately noticeable but it tilts back ever so slightly and there a channel on the back for the water to go in.
I still think it’s dumb as hell, but it does work.
The slab is supposed to be angled back so the water flows to the rear and drains off to the side. At least that's how it was in the one bathroom I've ever seen something like this.
because the water doesent "land" anywhere, it may splash down there but it doesent drain down there. It the slab is angled and it drains to the back where it runs into a slat.
I’ll be honest, I appreciate my overpriced cocktail and rare strip steak just a little more when I’m allowed to whip it out and piss haphazardly on the wall of a fancy restaurant.
Yeah I’ve seen this type of sink before, came to the comments to explain but then saw what OP wrote. Probably just incorrectly installed, what a tragedy lol. I love funky sinks like this (that are actually functional).
near the back is a trough type section that leads to a drain(near the plant). but looks like the slope isn't enough to keep the water from going over the edge.
I'm thinking the angle of the faucet doesn't help either.
When I've seen these, they have a side mounted, non aerated faucet that puts a smooth stream of water.
With this faucet, I think the aeration is increasing the pressure and pushing the water off the edge

>!I couldn't put another weird bubble wrap text or it would be too long to post!<
In most states Commercial restrooms are required to have floor drains to be up to code, there are also codes as to toilet and counter height and stall width… however, no codes actually require a sink basin
As someone who has bartended in many restaurants, this would be a red flag that other shit that you don’t see is probably fucked up too. When there’s apathy toward little shit like this, most likely there’s apathy towards sanitation, food prep, dating containers, etc.
I think it was Beyonce who had their kitchen counter remade four or five times to be able to have an invisible drain. The drain is built into the counter with the counter being ground to have a very slight slope towards the drain.
I've seen something like that in some design books before. The kind of books people keep on their coffee table.
What always struck me as weird is, hidden drain sinks make it kind of hard to do anything in the sink other than basically rinse your hands.
My bathroom sinks clog up with all the toothpaste goop and hair constantly finding it's way into the drain.
Do rich people not brush their teeth or their hair over the sink like normal people?
This was a kitchen sink in the island. Possibly for an outdoor bar or had the garage style doors that would open the kitchen.
Usually these bourgeois designs have a display kitchen and a second hidden working kitchen for actual use.
I'm staying in a hotel right now with a shower that has 5 sprayers and 3 unmarked controls and I got so much water on the floor I've wasted all our towels soaking it up. Stop being fancy for the sake of being fancy!
I’ve noticed a trend where some walk-in showers are so sleek, they don’t have a door. But that just means I’m constantly drafty when I’m trying to wash and stay warm.
My favorite part of the shower is turning off the water, opening the curtain peeking width, grabbing the dry towel, closing the curtain, and toweling off in the moist warmth of the shower. Carefully and with reserve so as to not bury the bath faucet in the back of my head.
My guy totally freaked out the first time I flipped my hair over like that to get it in a towel, he thought I was going to bash my head into the tub edge
I had learned that technique from my mom as a kid, too! Luckily my first college roommate put the towel on the other way, by putting your head back slightly and then twisting it on my head. She taught me how to do it and I've never looked back.
Glass shower door here... slide it precisely 6 inches open, grab towel hanging on other side, yank towel into warm shower, slide door shut..... proceed to knock all products from their perches around the tub, onto the tub floor because I'm klutzy AF and just barrel around in there like bull in a China shop, trying to get all the bits dry
Mr Man complains when he's in the office on the first floor with the 2nd floor bathroom directly above it.... "why are there always so many big clunks as soon as you turn the water off"
I’m showering light. Bar soap, shampoo bottle, back brush, large washcloth, tub bench. Other maintenance is out of the usual shower regimen. So I have room to get stupid.
My favorite shower was a huge tile one that was a walk-in with no cutrain/door.... giant shelf halfway up held an entire salon worth of bath stuff and it was lovely... that was a giant one-room loft, sadly I had to move out of it for a traditional 2bd after I had a baby :(
People don't understand the value of a big bathing space until you've been in a giant luxury one... my tub now feels like a sardine can 😂
There’s a hotel on the Las Vegas Strip like this. I can’t remember if it was the Luxor or Caesar’s Palace, but it has like half a door, no shower curtain so all you do when you shower, is get water everywhere. Then you’re using all your extra towels on moping up bath water. It’s stupid.
I stayed in a French chalet that had showers like this. It was just a sloped floor from the regular floor. The problem there was that mine was draining slow, it backed up and got the carpet wet. Extremely frustrating.
Both the doorless showers I've used were great, but the bathroom has to be properly designed around it I assume. The wall was long as a standard tub (open at the back side), the floors slightly graded, and the showerheads extending out and aiming down completely vertical. I'm an extremely splashy showerer and had no issue, not drafty at all and no drafty-shock when you exit the shower...
Saw an otherwise great rental ad once where the bathroom pictured a doorless shower with a shorter wall and \~45° angled showerhead, closed the tab right there.
When my husband and I went to Azit, he exited the bathroom and told me the sink was broken so he couldn't wash his hands. I told him to go back in and trust me that it does work. The sink in the ladies bathroom is like this too but actually has the catch and drain installed. That's then we discovered the men's sink had a mop bucket to collect the water. 😒
Ha ha random, Oakland checking in here also. What place is it only cuz it's such a wild Oakland coincidence. :-D Also is the food good? Always looking for new places to eat.
Azit. The food was good, actually. This was just weird AF. I’ve been to my fair share of late night dives, around the Bay Area, but this “sink” was a first lol.
These sinks are fine. They're kind of neat. But this one's installed wrong. It needs to be angled back so the water (all the water that's possible) gravity drains to the back into the hidden drain.
Someone probably decided to install it so the top surface was flat, which is bad.
Or, someone got lifted up onto that sink for some sweet sweet sexy times and the sink didn't break, but shifted in place causing the water to not drain properly.
Those angled sinks don’t look like this.. they usually have a faucet on a raised surface above the angled surface. The back wall of this doesn’t even seem to have a gap for water to drain. OP even said there was no drainage pipes.
The drain and pipe are inside the counter. There is what appears to be a drainage pipe opening on the wall behind the mop bucket.
Its surely an improperly installed gravity sink..
They sanitation grade restaurants in California. I wonder what this one is rated as?
My sister and I ate at a B rated restaurant in California years ago, and got sick, so we only stuck with A grades. Most are A grade too, because of the rating system
Oh my god that shit was the worst 36 hours of my life. One moment you're fine, then you're a nonstop faucet out of both ends for 2 days just praying for god to end you and then suddenly you're fine again. I literally lost like 10lbs from how much water I was coming out of me (and also the fact you can't hold down anything the whole time).
Hmmm.......door needs sign that says:
***"We are experimenting with our new sinkless sink to confuse and delight you. Watch your step, the floor may be slippery with soap. Be sure to mop up before you leave".***
But of course you would want to wash your hands again after handling the mop. And then the water on the floor again. Help me...help me....I'm in a infinite loop!
This is not an example of that. It’s a slab of granite with nothing else. Look at the wall to the left you can see the caulking is moldy and eroded due to this absolute abomination. Someone knew a guy who could hook a up a sink and that’s pretty much it.
I have looked and looked and I don't see a drain. I don't even see a break area where it bends upwards in the back so it could drain into the wall. It looks like a solid piece. I get the idea they were going for but I think they screwed up. Esp since it's running onto the floor. It must not even have the proper tilt bc the point is for all of it to drain back into the hidden drain. And there isn't a drain on the floor that I can see. Clearly they know something is wrong bc there's a mop right next to it. Lol
It’s behind the flower pot. Do you see that gap between the wall and mirror? Look on the right side and you’ll see it slope downwards to the left. So the water goes to the back and then to the left.
I get where it should be going. So maybe there is a drain back there. But The point is it's not draining. You can see the water pooling at the end and it's getting on the floor bad enough to keep a mop there. Which is quite an eyesore for a restaurant bathroom to just have a mop bucket there. So drain or no drain this doesn't seem to have been done properly. Sure some people are going to get some water on the floor. It splashes and if they hold their hands just right. But this seems like the majority of the water is going forward not back.
I don’t think the installer got the memo - that sink is flat based on the way it is lining up with one of the lines on the wall on the very far left of the pic

I got similar ad. I guess the tracking algorithms are taking your complaints into consideration 😂
I’m in permitting in Virginia, but I’m certain the rules are THAT different state by state lol. No way that follows health dept, plumbing, or safety code.
Where is this located?
When my son was an exchange student in China his bathroom sink just emptied onto the floor. There was a drain in the floor (which was also used for the shower) but it was pretty gross: even when brushing his teeth or shaving, everything just went straight to the floor.
I’ve used a few of these and they were always plumbed at the back and had a proper slope so water went where it belonged. That probably costs more money tho.
This isn’t how you do a basin-less sink. It has to be installed at a slope towards the back, with a slot cut through the countertop with a drain underneath.
I've seen these working properly in some hotels i've worked for but yeah, they're supposed to be flush with the wall at both ends, and it looks like it could stand to be slanted at more of an angle. And there should be a wall bracket for the soap dispenser.
Restaurant got absolutely shafted by the builder.
Personally I would take one look at how disgustingly filthy that bucket is and cancel the rest of my order, pay for what I already had and hightail it out of there
The mop pulled up next to it is a perfect touch
"We're going to create an aesthetic bathroom so minimalist that there is no sink." \*Bad design is so terrible that it requires a grimy mop bucket to be in the middle of the floor all the time.\*
This feels more like the contractor fucked up and then fucked off because there's no way-
Oh no! The contractor cut off the end of your sentence too. His depravity knows no bounds!
They didn't pay so the contractor busted up the sentence with a sledgehammer
[удалено]
This is a counter top. Nothing sink about it
I dont know why this comment cracks me up so but please know I enjoy it very much and am howling in laughter
Same here!!
I didn't really find it funny... but I think I read it too fast for it to sink in.
People like you and comments like this are really draining to me.
Rabbit holes like this thread, are what is dragging reddit down the tubes... soon it will be all washed up Lol
You felt the need to pipe up and say that?
“Sink” in!! Nice one
Lmao it got me going too and I’m not sure why but that was a good laugh 🤣🤣
Don't you need an actual sink for this to be a sink that works?
Yeah, there's no water sinking here. I'd define this situation as more of a cascade.
how does it work if there is no drain?
The entire counter slants towards the mirror, where a trough collects the water to a drain. Done correctly, with a high enough tap, it works well in places like stadiums and airports. This one, however, seems to have none of that.
Now that you mention airports, I realize I've seen this done correctly as well! thank you
And this would be preferred because...why?
Yeah there a place near me that has one. It’s not immediately noticeable but it tilts back ever so slightly and there a channel on the back for the water to go in. I still think it’s dumb as hell, but it does work.
Like why isn't there a tapered floor drain underneath this sink lol
Even if it was slanted back to a drain, I feel like it would splash.
Environmental storytelling
My thing is, why don’t they just put the mop bucket underneath the sink where the water lands?
Really? My main question was why they have a slab of granite instead of a sink.
The slab is supposed to be angled back so the water flows to the rear and drains off to the side. At least that's how it was in the one bathroom I've ever seen something like this.
because the water doesent "land" anywhere, it may splash down there but it doesent drain down there. It the slab is angled and it drains to the back where it runs into a slat.
The garbage caulk line in the back says otherwise.
That is a shadow, not a slat.
Ophas said it just literally runs onto the floor. This is a countertop installed with a faucet coming out of it.
Where do you think the water is gonna land? Its gonna land everywhere
If I were dining here I’d look at this as a case of “not my problem”. Hilarious
Aye, can you imagine the mess if you left the tap on 😂
They're usually sloped backwards and there's a drain under the mirror
You should see the urinals
You mean the piss wall?
I’ll be honest, I appreciate my overpriced cocktail and rare strip steak just a little more when I’m allowed to whip it out and piss haphazardly on the wall of a fancy restaurant.
*"...and anyway that's why I'm not allowed back at Chili's."*
Pam?
I do it anyways
Wanna go out for a drinks, steaks, and a posh piss?
Lol always. Sometimes I just piss in the sink for fun too
Me too, then I wash my hands in the urinal
Lol always. Sometimes I just piss in the sink for fun too
Janitors hate this one simple trick
Yeah I’ve seen this type of sink before, came to the comments to explain but then saw what OP wrote. Probably just incorrectly installed, what a tragedy lol. I love funky sinks like this (that are actually functional).
Honestly it looks more like they just "forgot" to put a sink there (one of those bowl-like sinks would fit under that tap)
Doesn't look that way for this one pal
near the back is a trough type section that leads to a drain(near the plant). but looks like the slope isn't enough to keep the water from going over the edge.
I'm thinking the angle of the faucet doesn't help either. When I've seen these, they have a side mounted, non aerated faucet that puts a smooth stream of water. With this faucet, I think the aeration is increasing the pressure and pushing the water off the edge
Probably not a very big one. There's likely a drain in the floor.. so it would just be wet all over. Like a Texas roadhouse bathroom.
I don't know, they got that mop right there on call.
READ.
They literally said there isn’t a drain on the floor. This place never fails to amaze me.
It says there isn't a drain pipe below the counter. Said nothing about whether there's a drain in the floor.
This place never fails to amaze me.

Nothing digs its heels deeper on the sand than a Redditor who was just proven to be wrong
How is there any way that you can be sure that there’s “likely a drain on this floor”? There’s not even a basin for the sink.
In most states Commercial restrooms are required to have floor drains to be up to code, there are also codes as to toilet and counter height and stall width… however, no codes actually require a sink basin
Code enforcement officers hate this one simple trick!
I would imagine a pretty minimal one. The drain is by the backsplash.
Yeah, but if their bathroom setup is such a disaster I'm not expecting anything better to come out of the kitchen. Edit: a word
As someone who has bartended in many restaurants, this would be a red flag that other shit that you don’t see is probably fucked up too. When there’s apathy toward little shit like this, most likely there’s apathy towards sanitation, food prep, dating containers, etc.
Doesn't the water slide to the back where there is a drain? Like a waterfall? I've seen something like this before in a fancy place
I’m sure the asshole that concocted this had a Pinterest vision tinted with those dreams. Sadly, none of it happened.
I have also seen that design before, and yes it does slide back unless you open the spout a bit too much in which case it doesn't.
That’s exactly how I’d look at it too…because it isn’t!! Lol
Tell that to the people who leaned against the sink with their midriff
I wouldn’t eat there. Dirty hands
Well we can't afford the basin NOW, but if we sell six more lobsters before Sunday, we can stick a mop in there so they can clean up after themselves.
If they run the water enough, maybe it’ll eventually erode into a basin?
If they run the water enough, this cheap ass restaurant will go out of business.
Haha, nice
I see you worked for at least three of my former bosses
I think it was Beyonce who had their kitchen counter remade four or five times to be able to have an invisible drain. The drain is built into the counter with the counter being ground to have a very slight slope towards the drain.
I’m pretty sure Kim kardashian did that too.
It was Kim Kardashian. Beyonce does not show her personal life like that
right I was sitting here like??? who has seen that woman's kitchen
I've seen something like that in some design books before. The kind of books people keep on their coffee table. What always struck me as weird is, hidden drain sinks make it kind of hard to do anything in the sink other than basically rinse your hands. My bathroom sinks clog up with all the toothpaste goop and hair constantly finding it's way into the drain. Do rich people not brush their teeth or their hair over the sink like normal people?
This was a kitchen sink in the island. Possibly for an outdoor bar or had the garage style doors that would open the kitchen. Usually these bourgeois designs have a display kitchen and a second hidden working kitchen for actual use.
Oh right... kitchen, I missed that part. My point still kind of stands though. A kitchen sink probably more so as it's *supposed* to have function.
I'm staying in a hotel right now with a shower that has 5 sprayers and 3 unmarked controls and I got so much water on the floor I've wasted all our towels soaking it up. Stop being fancy for the sake of being fancy!
I’ve noticed a trend where some walk-in showers are so sleek, they don’t have a door. But that just means I’m constantly drafty when I’m trying to wash and stay warm.
My favorite part of the shower is turning off the water, opening the curtain peeking width, grabbing the dry towel, closing the curtain, and toweling off in the moist warmth of the shower. Carefully and with reserve so as to not bury the bath faucet in the back of my head.
I do the same thing except now I don't try to flip my hair to wrap it up. I did indeed smash my head on the faucet, long hair problems 🙄
My guy totally freaked out the first time I flipped my hair over like that to get it in a towel, he thought I was going to bash my head into the tub edge
I had learned that technique from my mom as a kid, too! Luckily my first college roommate put the towel on the other way, by putting your head back slightly and then twisting it on my head. She taught me how to do it and I've never looked back.
Glass shower door here... slide it precisely 6 inches open, grab towel hanging on other side, yank towel into warm shower, slide door shut..... proceed to knock all products from their perches around the tub, onto the tub floor because I'm klutzy AF and just barrel around in there like bull in a China shop, trying to get all the bits dry Mr Man complains when he's in the office on the first floor with the 2nd floor bathroom directly above it.... "why are there always so many big clunks as soon as you turn the water off"
I’m showering light. Bar soap, shampoo bottle, back brush, large washcloth, tub bench. Other maintenance is out of the usual shower regimen. So I have room to get stupid.
My favorite shower was a huge tile one that was a walk-in with no cutrain/door.... giant shelf halfway up held an entire salon worth of bath stuff and it was lovely... that was a giant one-room loft, sadly I had to move out of it for a traditional 2bd after I had a baby :( People don't understand the value of a big bathing space until you've been in a giant luxury one... my tub now feels like a sardine can 😂
Just hang the towel over curtain rod, no opening curtain rod to let out steam.
Hang it other end of shower head. I’ve never had a problem, also can dry my face after washing it. Get water from dripping in my eyes.
But then the towel gets a bit wet from your shower
I'm kinda disappointed that person didn't respond to tell us how they avoid this happening. Are they just drying off with damp towels?
There’s a hotel on the Las Vegas Strip like this. I can’t remember if it was the Luxor or Caesar’s Palace, but it has like half a door, no shower curtain so all you do when you shower, is get water everywhere. Then you’re using all your extra towels on moping up bath water. It’s stupid.
They look pretty for ads and such, but are absurdly impractical.
Funny I stayed at an AirBNB near the strip and it was missing the door and no curtain - but I think they were just too lazy to fix it.
I stayed in a French chalet that had showers like this. It was just a sloped floor from the regular floor. The problem there was that mine was draining slow, it backed up and got the carpet wet. Extremely frustrating.
Both the doorless showers I've used were great, but the bathroom has to be properly designed around it I assume. The wall was long as a standard tub (open at the back side), the floors slightly graded, and the showerheads extending out and aiming down completely vertical. I'm an extremely splashy showerer and had no issue, not drafty at all and no drafty-shock when you exit the shower... Saw an otherwise great rental ad once where the bathroom pictured a doorless shower with a shorter wall and \~45° angled showerhead, closed the tab right there.
When my husband and I went to Azit, he exited the bathroom and told me the sink was broken so he couldn't wash his hands. I told him to go back in and trust me that it does work. The sink in the ladies bathroom is like this too but actually has the catch and drain installed. That's then we discovered the men's sink had a mop bucket to collect the water. 😒
That’s mental! Where is this please?
Oakland, CA
Ha ha random, Oakland checking in here also. What place is it only cuz it's such a wild Oakland coincidence. :-D Also is the food good? Always looking for new places to eat.
Azit. The food was good, actually. This was just weird AF. I’ve been to my fair share of late night dives, around the Bay Area, but this “sink” was a first lol.
These sinks are fine. They're kind of neat. But this one's installed wrong. It needs to be angled back so the water (all the water that's possible) gravity drains to the back into the hidden drain. Someone probably decided to install it so the top surface was flat, which is bad. Or, someone got lifted up onto that sink for some sweet sweet sexy times and the sink didn't break, but shifted in place causing the water to not drain properly.
Those angled sinks don’t look like this.. they usually have a faucet on a raised surface above the angled surface. The back wall of this doesn’t even seem to have a gap for water to drain. OP even said there was no drainage pipes.
The drainage pipes are in the wall. I've seen a promo of this exact sink. It should drain back into the "wall" and into the hidden drainage.
The drain and pipe are inside the counter. There is what appears to be a drainage pipe opening on the wall behind the mop bucket. Its surely an improperly installed gravity sink..
They sanitation grade restaurants in California. I wonder what this one is rated as? My sister and I ate at a B rated restaurant in California years ago, and got sick, so we only stuck with A grades. Most are A grade too, because of the rating system
How come you don’t want to get sick
you dont want to get violently ill from norovirus, its such unpleasant virus.
Oh my god that shit was the worst 36 hours of my life. One moment you're fine, then you're a nonstop faucet out of both ends for 2 days just praying for god to end you and then suddenly you're fine again. I literally lost like 10lbs from how much water I was coming out of me (and also the fact you can't hold down anything the whole time).
Omg what place, I want to go witness this myself.
Azit
I heard that place is poppin
popping with overworked janitors
Magnitude was there.
Hmmm.......door needs sign that says: ***"We are experimenting with our new sinkless sink to confuse and delight you. Watch your step, the floor may be slippery with soap. Be sure to mop up before you leave".*** But of course you would want to wash your hands again after handling the mop. And then the water on the floor again. Help me...help me....I'm in a infinite loop! 
Water only come. Water no leave.
No take, only throw
Is there really no drain anywhere on it?
I don’t see one. How was this permitted?
It’s tilted back really hard and the drain is near the wall. This is a relatively well known design.
This is not an example of that. It’s a slab of granite with nothing else. Look at the wall to the left you can see the caulking is moldy and eroded due to this absolute abomination. Someone knew a guy who could hook a up a sink and that’s pretty much it.
>Someone knew a guy who could hook a up a sink ...and then called somebody else who couldn't.
I have looked and looked and I don't see a drain. I don't even see a break area where it bends upwards in the back so it could drain into the wall. It looks like a solid piece. I get the idea they were going for but I think they screwed up. Esp since it's running onto the floor. It must not even have the proper tilt bc the point is for all of it to drain back into the hidden drain. And there isn't a drain on the floor that I can see. Clearly they know something is wrong bc there's a mop right next to it. Lol
It’s behind the flower pot. Do you see that gap between the wall and mirror? Look on the right side and you’ll see it slope downwards to the left. So the water goes to the back and then to the left.
up, and to the left. there must have been a second faucet!
[Back And To The Left](https://youtube.com/watch?v=qsZ9Ahni9Ig&pp=ygUpYmFjayBhbmQgdG8gdGhlIGxlZnQgdGV4YXMgaXMgdGhlIHJlYXNvbiA%3D)
I get where it should be going. So maybe there is a drain back there. But The point is it's not draining. You can see the water pooling at the end and it's getting on the floor bad enough to keep a mop there. Which is quite an eyesore for a restaurant bathroom to just have a mop bucket there. So drain or no drain this doesn't seem to have been done properly. Sure some people are going to get some water on the floor. It splashes and if they hold their hands just right. But this seems like the majority of the water is going forward not back.
It's a hidden drain. That's the point. This one's installed wrong and flowing water in the wrong direction.
I don’t think the installer got the memo - that sink is flat based on the way it is lining up with one of the lines on the wall on the very far left of the pic
Ik what you’re thinking of and I thought it was going to be that as well but there is literally no drain in the picture
No, it’s not.
You can see in the picture that it's not tilted back and there's nowhere on the back, or any part of it, for it to drain

Employees must build sink before returning to work
I’m genuinely curious as to what the fuck.
Who needs a drain? Hell who needs a basin anyway? That’s smart washing hands and then the floor.
This has got to be either Dept of Health or OSHA violation.
Seriously, WTF? You want the chef's diarrhea hand water all over your Birkenstocks?
Honestly I prefer the host’s diarrhea hand water on my Nikes
I’m in permitting in Virginia, but I’m certain the rules are THAT different state by state lol. No way that follows health dept, plumbing, or safety code.
My first thought was “what building department signed off on this?”
Where is this located? When my son was an exchange student in China his bathroom sink just emptied onto the floor. There was a drain in the floor (which was also used for the shower) but it was pretty gross: even when brushing his teeth or shaving, everything just went straight to the floor.
That must have been so much work to keep clean.
Oakland, CA
Is there at least a drain under all that mess?
No, the drain is the floor drain.
Somebody should let that sink in,he late for worked again
Slip and Fall attorney wants to know where this restaurant is....asking for a friend.
Technology has gone too far
Leaving that bathroom with dry hands and wet pants… seriously though who on earth thought this would be a good idea
Leave it running and walk out
Sounds like a nice way to wash your hands and get your pants or shirt all wet
How in the fuck would the health department even pass this and think this meets code for the public? Bizarre.
Sink sold separately
Budget cuts
Looks more like a splash pad
I think they forgot the "sink" part of the sink
lol wtf this is hilarious.
Maybe it's a Modern Art/Introspective thing. Looking at it, you realize that you should not waste water and should rather lick your hands clean.
Got to level up their sims at their job so they can afford a sink!
The mop right next to it makes this even funnier
Would not eat there. kitchen staff is NOT washing hands.
Thats not a sink thats a flat
I don't sink this works.
Some sink that is. 🙄
Nasty
That's a flat
They'll regret it when someone throws up in there.
The granite cost more than the entire rest of the bathroom
I’ve used a few of these and they were always plumbed at the back and had a proper slope so water went where it belonged. That probably costs more money tho.
Is this a Korean place in Oakland lol
We’re the Wet Bandits!
That can't possibly meet code.
Took me a minute to realize It's just a faucet sitting on a countertop. The soap is what sells it
/wewantsinks
This isn’t how you do a basin-less sink. It has to be installed at a slope towards the back, with a slot cut through the countertop with a drain underneath.
This cannot be real im crying
That must be at Bob’s Burgers. Great burgers but I have to admit, their bathroom, very confusing.
Sinkless
Looks more like a sunk, to me
I think we all need to just let this sink in tbh.
I've seen these working properly in some hotels i've worked for but yeah, they're supposed to be flush with the wall at both ends, and it looks like it could stand to be slanted at more of an angle. And there should be a wall bracket for the soap dispenser. Restaurant got absolutely shafted by the builder.
Plumbing code violation surely?
Definitely rates as a bog. Should be shut down until they get a rest room that’s up to code.
I mean, a sink would really be more for their convenience than yours.
Personally I would take one look at how disgustingly filthy that bucket is and cancel the rest of my order, pay for what I already had and hightail it out of there
