A restaurant in Japan has hired two unusual waiters - a pair of macaque monkeys, Yatchan and Fukuchan.
The duo, who are popular with customers, serve hot towels and drinks and are given soya beans as tips.
Following a recent bad experience I had at a local pub where after waiting 20 minutes to be served at the bar I was met by a sour faced barman with an attitude, I think this restaurant may be onto something. After all, these guys are only to eager to please and I think it can be argued that they are likely to be much better waiters than some human ones.
A video of the monkeys at work can be found at:
