New Tokyo restaurant charges higher prices to foreign tourists than Japanese locals

We just got back from Tokyo and the prices listed for those dishes seems crazy for both. “**Tamatebako’s prices are also dependent on where you’re coming to the restaurant from with locals being charged less, and foreign tourists charged more**.
Here’s how Tamatebako’s prices break down:
● Weekday lunch
5,478 yen (US$36) for Japanese/Japan resident customers
6,578 yen for foreign travelers
● Monday-Thursday dinner
6,578 yen for Japanese/Japan resident customers
7,678 yen for foreign travelers
● Weekend/holiday lunch
6,578 yen for Japanese/Japan resident customers
7,678 yen for foreign travelers
● Friday/weekend/holiday dinner
7,678 yen for Japanese/Japan resident customers
8,778 yen for foreign travelers”
What are these prices even? So expensive! You could throw a rock and hit 100 eateries in a small area anywhere in the busy parts of Tokyo so why even bother with these scam eateries.
Wow that some expensive meals. Assuming this is a finer establishment? I’d personally make sure to avoid this type of place that feels it’s ok to price gouge tourists. Or anyone else for that matter.
The article says Japan residents are included for the discounted prices which I’m assuming includes foreigners. Also not sure about other countries but Australian tours/zoos etc often have cheaper rates for local residents so not sure this is anything too outrageous
Well, gotta take from the people who can afford
Not a great lunch discount. Usually it’s half price or more.
Which New Tokyo, the third one?
