cafeteria
If you’ve ever wondered what a Japanese school lunch tastes like, you’ll want to head to this hidden gem.
This super cheap find is open to the public, so join us as we walk you through how to eat there.
Experience the comforting flavours of a school lunch, and enjoy all-you-can eat Japanese curry as well!
It’s like a dungeon quest, but anyone who finds this special door can enjoy the cheap meals hidden behind it.
Without actually getting arrested and being thrust into the confines of a prison cell, there is little if any chance of us being able to taste real prison food. However, this doesn’t stop many of us wondering on the odd occasion what all those guys doing hard labor actually eat day after day. It could possibly be the most revolting thing known to man but if only there were a way to at least try it…. In this vain, our RocketNews24 reporter Kuzo searched high and low for a place where all of us upstanding citizens can try the stuff without resorting to breaking the law. Thankfully, this is Japan, so it didn’t take long for him to track down a cafeteria in northern part of Japan that specializes solely in Japanese prison food.
