Germans asplutter at naked sushi platter

BONN (Reuters) - A German restaurant has been attacked as "tasteless"
for serving sushi on naked models lying on top of tables. Brigitte
Vollmer-Schubert, ombudsman for women's issues in the central city of
Hanover, said she was appalled that the restaurant used naked women
as huge "platters" for the Japanese dish, dubbed "sushi ala Jungfrau
(virgin)." But the restaurant owner was quoted by Bild newspaper as
saying the dish had been a huge hit and the evening-long meal,
costing up to 400 marks (US$250) per person, was booked out for weeks
in advance. The models, usually students in their 20s, wear nothing
but see-through veils over their heads and a thin floral decoration
between their legs. They are required to lie motionless while the
sushi is spread out all over their bodies. See
