Want Some Cheese With Your Whine? Lefty Gets DRAGGED for Dunking on 'Not Welcoming' Japanese Restaurant

When you travel to another country, you're going to experience cultures and cuisines and practices you're not familiar with. We thought that was common knowledge, but we were mistaken.

So when an X user decided to complain about a Japanese restaurant and its very simple menu, he got a lesson in tourism he's not soon going to forget:

'Disgraceful'? Really?

It is. It's on this writer's bucket list. She wants to see Tokyo before she dies.

Are you kidding? First of all, it’s not “disgraceful” if an establishment doesn’t want to welcome tourists. But this one is very tourist friendly! They have a sign in English, and it gives people the information they need to decide whether or not they want to eat there.

An excellent point. They make it very clear up front what the menu consists of (in English, no less!) and -- while this writer has never been to Japan, she's going to assume there are many restaurants to choose from.

Cope. 😂😂

And seethe.

Have you tried telling the manager of Japan about it?

This made us chuckle.

Ugh. I hate tourists like this.

It makes us cringe in embarrassment.

You’re a guest in their country, don’t be the ugly tourist that looks down the nose at them.

It’s clearly written in English, well done.

Yeah, don't be that guy.

Japan has the cleanest cities I’ve ever seen and some of the best food.

'But this place isn't vegan so 0/10 stars!' - that guy, probably.

This is based as hell

It sure is.

Not having your dietary preferences met by every restaurant in existence is literally violence https://t.co/0c566OffPu

Literally.

They're sick of answering your annoying little questions, Karen-san. https://t.co/BZlmZKTDRd

Heh.

It’s terrible such notices even need printing. Only grandiose tourist types who expect a foreign country will cater to their dietary needs find it ‘disgraceful’. Either try their cuisine, politely ask about alternatives, pack your own food or not visit entirely. https://t.co/D8zufie08q pic.twitter.com/WsY2iyAJp0

Excellent question.

Japan be like: "We have our own culture, not yours."

Pork and chicken.

A delicious combo.

Thanks. Now we're hungry.

Oh, and businesses -- in Japan and elsewhere -- can run their business the way they see fit.
