When dining on delectables doled out in dishes, it’s sometimes nice to sit in suitably styled seats.
Allowing one to boast,
although it’s a bit of a mouthful,
about eating from a bowl in a booth that’s a bowl.

You can at least tell us where it is.
Lee says
It’s in Tachikawa in western Tokyo phauna, although I can’t remember what it’s called.
Not that it helps with the name, but I’m pretty sure it’s part of a chain too.
stupod says
The name would help actually. Do you have a way of finding any details at all?
lalalemon says
It’s called “Issun-boushi” in a sort of restaurant complex (I think) called OTOGIBANASHI TACHIKAWA run by a company called Diamond Dining.
Lee says
Yeah, that’s the place name lalalemon. There’s a couple of links here with info and maps.

That is cool! What’s the food like?
Jason says
Lee, were these shots handheld as usual? Definitely impressive if so. Nice composition and creative idea for a photo set either way. I like shots featuring black and red.
Lee says
Cheers Jason. Yeah, they were handheld, although as the place had just opened, there were hardly any people about and I had time to steady myself.
