In Japan, there’s a chain called Saizeriya.
It serves Italian food.
In every major city.
A plate of pasta: 400 yen.
A pizza: 400 yen.
Escargot: 400 yen.
A glass of wine: 100 yen.
That’s $3.
That’s $3.
That’s $3.
That’s 70 cents.
Four people can sit down,
eat until they can’t move,
drink wine,
and walk out for $25 total.
Not a food truck.
Not a discount day.
A clean restaurant with menus and waiters
and a free unlimited drink bar.
Tokyo has hundreds of them.
The hardest part isn’t paying the bill.
It’s believing it.
