TikTok users worry over bill for woman’s Tokyo sushi restaurant visit

A TikTok user who visited a highly rated sushi restaurant in Tokyo that does not display prices on its menu caused concerns among viewers after she did not update viewers on the cost of the meal.

Key points:

• TikTok user Jessi B (@tryingtobequiet) shared her visit to the restaurant in a viral video posted on Wednesday.

The details:

• “As a millennial, it’s hard to just ask,” she wrote in the description.
• Aside from a private chef making her sushi, the restaurant reportedly handed her fresh hot towels every 10 minutes. This gave her the impression that her bill could cost somewhere between $200 and $2,000.
• A few hours later, she revealed in a follow-up video that the whole meal amounted to 30,000 yen or approximately $191.
• “So, not what I expected to pay for dinner, that’s for sure, but it’s doable. I can live with that. I accepted my fate the second I sat down,” she said.
