Ukrainian undertakers say they have built the world's first death-themed restaurant - in a 65ft long coffin.The huge casket is decorated with dozens of wreaths and normal-sized coffins, reports the Daily Telegraph.
Diners can order from a menu that includes "Nine Day" and "Forty Day" salads - named after local mourning rituals - and a dish called "Let's meet in paradise".
The restaurant, called Eternity, is the work of a funeral parlour in the town of Truskavets, in the west of the country near the Polish border.
"Thirty cubic metres of pine have been used for the construction," said Andri, one of those behind the enterprise.
"It's our director Stepan Pyrianyk who had the idea. He loves his work and reckons the project will bring tourists to Truskavets."
The undertakers hope their restaurant will be confirmed as the world's biggest coffin, attracting tourists to a region currently best known for its mineral-rich bathing waters.
Guinness World Records confirmed the biggest coffin title is currently unclaimed, but said they had yet to receive an application from Ukraine.
