WORLD'S FIRST SIGN LANGUAGE RESTAURANT

A world's first restaurant has opened in Canada, where having your order fall on deaf ears is a good thing. Signs Restaurant in Toronto is staffed almost entirely by deaf waiters and waitresses, and all of the employees know sign-language. The unique eatery asks customers to order their food and drink using sign language, which is fully integrated into the dining experience. Assisted by cheat sheets that illustrate how to sign meals and drinks, diners can use sign language for their orders and appreciate the challenges the hard-of-hearing face each day.
