Nobu - where the endangered species list is also the menu!

It was recently reported that Robert De Niro’s restaurant, Nobu, was serving endangered tuna. Now it seems that despite the outrage from many animal rights activists, the restaurant is embracing this controversial approach to fine dining.

Yeah, I'm talking to you.

Yeah, I'm talking to you.

Here is the script for the new radio ad that De Niro will be recording soon.

We tried to confirm if Mr. De Niro had read this script, but the general consensus is that Mr. De Niro doesn’t read scripts anymore.

How ya doin’? I’m famous actor Robert De Niro.
Are you looking for a truly unique dining experience?
Then come on down to my restaurant – Nobu – where
the endangered species list is also the menu!

Our appetizers include Baby Sea Turtles on the half shell,
Koala Bear Casserole and yummy Panda Puffs.

Our mouth-watering entrees feature Penguin A La King,
Stir Fried Meerkat, Stuffed Monkey and Baby Seal Parmesan,
just like mama used to make.

If you’re really hungry try the freaking buffet which features African pachyderm cutlets, Puma burgers and Chinese River Dolphins on a bed of fresh greens.

But if you are one of those Greenpeace pansies who don’t
appreciate exotic cuisine, we also offer more common fare,
like Chipmunk Chimichangas, Hamster Pâté, and our
delicious Kitten Kabobs.

So join me, Robert De Niro and all the other rich folks at Nobu, which I think is Japanese for ‘Tastes like chicken.’

Bon appetit.
