Since nothing else is going on today, be sure to celebrate Penguin Awareness Day (https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/penguin-awareness-day/) with a review of the Pengöpäts entry in the National Atlas of the Kingdom of Talossa 1994 (https://wiki.talossa.com/images/e/e4/National_Atlas_of_the_Regipats_Talossa.pdf)

And Penguin Island (https://www.google.com/maps/dir//Penguin+Island,+New+Zealand/@-47.7528,179.017972,698m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m9!4m8!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0xa80895494513ad3f:0xf634a26303218827!2m2!1d179.0180087!2d-47.7539287!3e0), which is as close to an antipode to Cézembre as can be found, in the Bounty Islands (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bounty_Islands)
Although technically incorrect, I was claimed by the Soviets and there where 2 bases
Technically claimed is a strong word too tho, having a base in the area doesn't necessarily count as claim xD

Part of the Bounty Islands were claimed by USSR? Interesting - did not know that. I do see they are part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Zealand_Subantarctic_Islands.
Or are you referring to Pengöpäts?
There have been two stations in the area, one by the us in the 60's and one by the Russians in the 80's.

There was also a camp in the eastnmost corner https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAIS_Divide
There is also a glacier operation taking place in the area.
So yes pengopats
Just as there are some inklings of a Cézembre consulate in Vuode (//http://) and Paris (//http://), for Pengöpäts it would appear the only viable option rather than a restaurant would be the dining area at Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station
