That your parents have threatened to punish you if you did not eat all the food is a fact that we all thought had been overcome. TRUE? Well, we tell you that there is a japanese restaurant where if you don't eat everything they will fine you. The reason? that consumers better value the work of fishmongers. We tell you more here.
A fine in favor of the fishermen
The foundation of the Hachikyo restaurant is the idea of raising awareness and honor fishing and its workers. This has been assured by its owner Hitoshi Sugita. who has confessed that the fine that is given to those who do not finish their plate It is not for profit, but is intended for a group of fishermen. Well, it intends to show respect to those in charge of providing their main course. Likewise, he recognizes the danger his workers face to satisfy us gastronomically.
But what is Hachikyo's star dish? Tsukko meshi (salmon feet). However, in order to try it you have to accept the rules of the restaurant. These are:
- Do not leave even a grain of rice in the bowl. If you don't eat all of it, you will face a fine.
- Do not start eating the rice until the tsukko meshi is served. you can't even touch itIf you do, you risk not serving the next dish.
- Shout an old sea shack, while distributing the tsuko. This sound, along with the atmosphere of the restaurant, transports you to the docks themselves at the time of fishing.
If you follow all these steps, thousands of reviews on the internet They assure you to spend a unique and unrepeatable evening. And, of course, you save a fine. an idea with very humble beginnings and a great conscious goal.
