I like the attitude that you get in sushi bars sometimes. This photograph is illustrating it quite well. There is a fine balance of what they can say and do for you to respect them, and what they can’t say and do for people to not want to go there. I have seen this in a lot of these local, proper Japanese places. They seems to be shopping customers, just as much as we are shopping for sushi. It is in their right to be demanding. Or as the photographer says: “You want Sushi? Follow the rules.”
