For Europeans or anyone who isn't familiar with this "restaurant":
"The establishment is a
hospital theme restaurant: waitresses ("nurses") and waiters ("doctors") take orders ("prescriptions") from the customers ("patients"). Each patient dons a hospital gown and wrist band before ordering and those who do not finish their meal receive a paddling by one of the "nurses" with the option to buy the paddle afterwards.
The menu is generally themed around items that are exceptionally high in calories and fat.
[1] It includes "Single", "Double", "Triple", "Quadruple", all the way up to "Octuple
Bypass" hamburgers,
[2] ranging from 8 to 32 ounces (230 to 910 g) of beef (up to about 8,000 calories (33,000 kJ)), all-you-can-eat "
Flatliner Fries" (cooked in pure
lard),
beer and
tequila, "
butterfat milkshakes," and soft drinks such as
Mexican-bottled Coca-Cola made with cane sugar.
[1] Customers can also order unfiltered cigarettes, or candy cigarettes for children.
[3]
Customers over 350 lb (160 kg) in weight eat for free if they weigh in with a nurse waitress before eating. Beverages and to-go orders are excluded and sharing food is also not allowed for the free food deal.

One of the restaurant's promotions is a reward for customers who finish a Triple or Quadruple Bypass Burger, after which they are placed on a wheelchair and wheeled out to their vehicle by their "personal nurse".

Pretty embarrassing overall and most people I know wouldn't be caught dead in a place like that. Here I am at a relatively normal weight for my height, I eat a mostly vegetarian diet full of vegetables and whole grains, and I was referred to a cardiologist yesterday. This life ain't fair.
