From feasting in the sky to dining with friendly giraffe companions.

There are restaurants and then there are restaurants. We picked the following locales for more than their divine six-course menus – they are all worthy of a highly selective bucket list.

1. Ithaa Undersea Restaurant {Maldives}

You’ll be mesmerized by the panoramic view of the coral reefs at this gorgeous restaurant located 16 feet below sea level.

2. Le Panoramic Restaurant {Mont Blanc, France}

Bask in the beauty of Mont Blanc’s mountainous slopes. If you enjoy skiing, this is the perfect après-ski lunch spot.

3. Dinner in the Sky {Belgium}

This is exactly what it sounds like – you are hoisted up 150 feet in the air by a crane for a grand dinner with a view. Try not to drop your appetizers!

4. Giraffe Manor {Kenya}

In case you ever wondered what giraffes eat for breakfast, this hotel allows you to share a meal and find out!

5. Labassin Waterfalls Restaurant {Philippines}

Possibly the one occasion on which you should definitely go chasin’ waterfalls.
