The place looks cavernous!
Luckily, the advertisement from ebay led me to this article from Modern Mechanix.

I don't know if the idea of a food carousel ever really caught on stateside, but in the movie Johnny English, Rowan Atkinson's character was nearly decapitated when his necktie became caught in the food carousel at a sushi bar, much to the chagrin of the femme fatale he was pursuing. Interesting idea for self-serve food, even if there are occasional fatalities. Yes, it's slightly off-topic. So sue me!
