I don't understand. Are you saying you have to be Japanese to open a Japanese restaurant?

I want my chef braising foie gras in an antelope tear reduction, not updating menu prices for penny pinchers.

At more than one restaurant, on more than one occasion, the ends of my hair (not that long!) were gently singed by scented candles that unthinking staffers had decided to position on the back of the toilet. I am baffled by literally everything about this, including that I didn't learn from my first incident and somehow let it happen twice.
How did this person make it to adulthood? Am I being trolled?

My pet peeve is when the price on the online menu is lower than the price on the menu at the restaurant. Keep your shite updated.

I was wondering the same thing. Person, place, or thing?

I agree that a good website is great. I don't care if the prices are there. I like to see the menu and it's a plus if there's a gallery of pics of food and the restaurant.
I also prefer specials to be in writing.
I follow the Facebook pages of lots of restaurants, so I like when the restaurant has a page and post updates on specials.

Facebook or on their website is fine. I'm even OK if they are on a board in the front that is easy to see as you walk in.

Shitty beers selections at top-end steak houses.
Perry's in Houston has as their top-end beer St. Arnold Ale Wagger brown ale-or one of their year-round beers. Get with the program..

at the end of 2016, eating's got bigger problems ahead. America elected to its highest office a teetotaler reality star who orders their steak well-done; whose own foray into owning restaurants accounts for some of the most inedible, piss-poor, frickshit crass excuses for food ever served in New York City; and who either actually thinks a taco salad is a genuine way to celebrate Cinco De Mayo or who doesn't care about how offensively stupid (to say nothing of offensive) presenting that premise actually is.

if a restaurant doesn't have a useful website (menu with prices at least) I just don't go there

Also, the faux Japanese restaurant scene remains pathetic. If you know nothing about Japanese cuisine, but have slanty eyes, can cook rice, and have seaweed, fake krab, cream cheese, and aioli on hand, you can open up a "Japanese" restaurant.
I don't understand. Are you saying you have to be Japanese to open a Japanese restaurant?
I think he's saying any old zipperhead can open a Jap restaurant.

Wow! That's a whole shite ton of butt hurt by that writer. Need to work on finding him a safe space in a hurry.
