Tokyo is home to many highly exclusive restaurants. The kinds of places that put in place certain measures to keep the riff-raff out: exorbitant “seating charges,” guest lists, entrance through invitation only, that sort of thing
This place is apparently so exclusive that it’s only open for a single hour each day.
I wonder how they manage to stay in business.

Hey Jeff would that include the riff-raff spawn of Scientology Tom Cruise? If it doesn’t, I’m not eating there….

1 hour a day? Sounds like my kind of job, only if it included a 1 hour lunch, it would be perfect.
Dang, if Tom Cruise eats there, I don’t care if he’s a satanist, I’ll share a table with the dude. He was in Top Gun man~ He was friggin’ Maverick dude~

Actually, Judy and I (amazingly) happened to pass by the restaurant during the one hour that it’s apparently open for business, so we decided to take advantage of our good fortune and eat there. The food wasn’t all that great. . . somehow I doubt Tom Cruise will be making a stop there during his next visit to Japan.

believe it or not - that place is a chain. apparently the one hour business plan is working. or that’s the tatemae stance the corporate office is taking, anyway…

Time is definitely fucked up in Japan. I mean, some places are open until 25:00!
