Sala of Tokyo
Sala of Tokyo is a name resonating in the ears of most Japanese food lovers in Switzerland. Given its founding year of 1981, it is Switzerland’s oldest Japanese restaurant in business today.
“We live old traditions with new innovation, serve authentic everyday dishes and exclusive dining experiences altogether. The heartwarming food and welcoming shout of ‘irasshaimase’ (welcome) will beam you right to Japan,” shared Lorenz Muster, who manages the place.
“Not only do we serve Japanese food, but we also build a bridge between two countries rather far from each other geographically, yet not so different culturally, and we are very proud to do so.”
