About Meals

We do not have a specific designated dining area.

After hearing your wishes, we will take you to an Indian restaurant that is popular among local Indians. These eateries are not only delicious, but also hygienic, as they always use fresh ingredients due to the high turnover rate.

Since Indian people can also become ill due to unhygienic food, they are very careful about hygiene on a daily basis.
In addition, we try to refrain as much as possible from introducing stores that have not been very satisfactory to our Japanese customers in the past.

For those who do not like spicy food, we will introduce you to a restaurant where the spiciness can be adjusted. If you prefer a meal that is not spicy at all, we can take you to a fast food restaurant, as long as there is an appropriate restaurant nearby.

Please note that Western cuisine is more expensive and the number of restaurants that can accommodate it is limited. Please note that Western food is also available at an additional cost.

*Soft drinks and alcoholic beverages are also charged separately. Mineral water is free.
