The hotel near Shanghai's Suzhou River features more than 20 kinds of Saki representing different areas in Japan. Chairs are standard height with a chunky wooden look. 3 semi private rooms are located at each end of the outlet; these are complete with their own cook, Sakitori grills being built into the center of each table.
