Just opposite train station Akasaka is the culinary temple for Tokyo’s hungry ninja fans. Specially dressed ninja waiters lead diners through an underground fantasy world with built-in obstacles. A drawbridge to the main dining room opens only after a holler from the head ninja. On the menu are hundreds of differently decorated ninja dishes. Careful with the exploding snail dish, while serving, the ninja waiter lets a jet of fire shoot across the dish. Also recommended is the bonsai dessert. The mix of green tea, chocolate, ice-cream, bananas and strawberry really looks like a miniature tree. After the meal a ninja magician presents some convincing tricks at your table.
