[p2p-research] No secret recipes at open source restaurant

[Ryan]

So many things...basic things, remain undone by Open/P2P types.

Back in 2008 we wrote about Arne Hendriks's plan to create a
crowdsourced restaurant in Amsterdam. As of December, the resulting
eatery—called by its founders "the world's first open source
restaurant"—has now opened.

At the Instructables Restaurant, which launched as a pop-up event at
the historic Theatrum Anatomicum of the Waag in Amsterdam, patrons
receive not only creatively-cooked food but also instructions for
preparing everything they see, eat and use—including the furniture. For
example, someone seeking the recipe for the Tom Kha Gai soup they just
enjoyed can either claim it at the restaurant or download it online;
and anyone interested in making their own versions of the restaurant's
recycled 50-gallon barrel chairs can do likewise.

Everything in the restaurant derives from Instructables, a web-based
documentation platform where people share their expertise with others,
whether it's cooking, pottery or woodworking. Even the instructions for
creating the restaurant itself are now available on Instructables.com.

Is this a model to emulate for MIY (make-it-yourself) fans in your part
of the world? (Related: Crowdsourced restaurant taps local community —
