a couple can have an eight course meal on a king sized bed. \u003cbr/\u003eThe restaurant is appropriately named Aphrodisiac.\u003cbr/\u003eA new concept is transforming the art of eating in Los Angeles.\u003cbr/\u003eAphrodisiac is a themed restaurant, with a soothing sensual atmosphere and the strong belief that aphrodisiacs increase sexual desire and excite ardour. \u003cbr/\u003eLocated in Century City, the restaurant has pulled out all the stops. \u003cbr/\u003eBobby Burton owns the restaurant.\u003cbr/\u003eHe says there is no doubt that food and sensuality go hand in hand. \u003cbr/\u003eBurton says each item on the menu is an aphrodisiac.\u003cbr/\u003eScientific tests have proven that some aromas can have a great effect on the body, more than the actual ingestion of foods.\u003cbr/\u003eTherefore, at Aphrodisiac - smell and sound are just as important as the food. \u003cbr/\u003eDrinks include herbal elixir drops specifically for each mood. \u003cbr/\u003eThe highlight of Aphrodisiac is \"The Bedroom\" - a private room located in the restaurant.\u003cbr/\u003eA couple can dine in the privacy of 'The Bedroom' with closed circuit tv recording the entire experience for $395 USD.\u003cbr/\u003eThe couple is served an eight course meal with 8 wine pairings, and at the end of the night they are given a DVD of their experience.\u003cbr/\u003eDr. Mark Kayem is the head and throat surgeon from Culver City, California.\u003cbr/\u003eHe and his wife Erin Kayem wanted to try \"The Bedroom\".\u003cbr/\u003eThey both say the setting induces sensuality. \u003cbr/\u003eAphrodisiacs include the known oysters and chocolate, but asparaguses is also on the list- having been served to 19th Century bridegrooms due to its reputed aphrodisiacal powers. \u003cbr/\u003eChampagne is viewed as the 'drink of love' and moderate amounts are said to lower inhibitions and cause warm glow in the body. \u003cbr/\u003e Dr. Dhalia Keen is a Beverly Hills clinical phycologist (PSY.D).\u003cbr/\u003eShe specialises in dating, relationships and sexual problems. \u003cbr/\u003eShe says the restaurant offers customers a place to seduce and be seduced, adding it is an exciting thing for couples. \u003cbr/\u003eManuella Germain and her husband Henri have been together for 20 years and are regulars at the restaurant. \u003cbr/\u003eShe believes aphrodisiacs definitely work. \u003cbr/\u003eStan Goldman is another regular Aphrodisiac customer.\u003cbr/\u003eHe says the main aphrodisiac is happiness.\u003cbr/\u003eSpecialties on the menu
