This Restaurant Only Serves Foods That Start with the Letter C Because Uhh OK

“Now, what starts with the letter C?,” everyone’s favorite binge-eating Muppet asks himself at the beginning of his best-known song. “Cookie starts with C! Now let’s think of other things that start with C!” Cookie Monster immediately decides he doesn’t give a shit about any C-words other than cookie, so he repeats “C is for cookie, that’s good enough for me” approximately 800 straight times in the next minute.

Fortunately, Danna Haydar was willing to look beyond cookies when she decided to write the menu for The C House, which only features foods that start with C. (No, this isn’t an April Fool’s joke—yes, we’re disappointed she didn’t call it “The C-Section.”) “Everybody’s natural reaction is kind of head tilt, cool, curious," Hadar told the Tampa Bay Business Journal. "But they’re thinking about all the limitations—how much can this girl possibly do with the letter C?"

The restaurant’s initial Concept-with-a-C is to focus on what she calls “The Big 3”: Champagne, charcuterie, and cheesecake. During a long road trip, Hadar brainstormed the other foods and beverages that she could serve at The C-House, including crab cakes, calamari, cheesy mac, chili, Caesar salads, cheeseburgers, chicken, craft beer, and, yes, cookies. She’s also pushing the limits of this C-thing by listing poutine as “Canadian fries.”

The Tampa Bay Times reports that the restaurant’s gift shop will stick with the theme, selling “Coasters, candles, cocktail napkins, classic wood pieces” which makes it sound a little like the C-for-Cracker Barrel. Regardless, The C House is taking this one-letter thing to an extreme that we’re not sure we’ve seen before. (Chef Michael Symon’s four B-Spot restaurants divide their menus into Burgers, Bologna and Brats, Big Salads, and Bad Ass Shakes, but the individual entrees are allowed to begin with other consonants).

Back in Tampa, the C House had several soft launch events earlier in the month, and its grand opening was last weekend—but it immediately closed again until this Friday. “[W]e've decided to take a few days to regroup, reassess, and to get our 'game faces' on—as of this Friday (3/30), we'll be open for our full hours,” The C House posted on Facebook. “We look forward to welcoming back those that were a part of our soft launch events and to hosting those that have yet to join us.” (And at least one party said “Crap,” when they showed up for their brunch reservation and found the restaurant was C-L-O-S-E-D.”

If Hadar—whose last job was as an associate attorney for the Tampa Bay Lightning—decides that she’s run out of “consciously-curated” foods she can start using Cookie Monster’s logic. “A round donut with a bite out of it sometimes looks like a C,” he said. Now you’re talking.
