In Tokyo, a restaurant has taken the idea of protecting customers from covid and turned it into a veritable dining experience. Here, diners tuck into a special menu developed with fermented ingredients while nestled under the soft light of a giant traditional lantern, made by an ancestral artisan. It's a highly serious concept... and it doesn't come cheap!
