Japan’s biggest beef bowl chain Sukiya to shut nearly 2,000 stores after rat and bug contamination


I have eaten at Sukiya before the global pandemic, but when I read this, I was shocked.

    Isn’t this the place where that guy has gotten famous for eating at everyday for like 20yrs or something? What’s he gonna do?!?

    I’m going to say this news isn’t surprising. On my visit last year we ended up stopping at a sukiya in Shinjuku and it felt pretty grubby in comparison to most other places.

    The ones I went to were clean and all had open kitchens so definitely isolated incidents in certain stores.
