Okami Restaurant

This is how it works. With a puzzlingly exact price tag of $34.80 a head, “diners can choose up to 30-40 dishes to share”, an Okami spokeswoman explains. “The restaurant scales the dish size depending on the group so there are no average dishes per person. Guests can eat as much as they can during the seating.”

Customers get two hours to climb the summit. Ironically, it’s the same amount of time runners long considered the final hurdle to break for the marathon.

Open lunch Sun; dinner Wed-Mon.
