BRING YOUR HUNGRY FRIENDS

Umewaka Restaurant in Anjo City, Japan, has an unusual item on its menu. The so-called “Generous Roll” is an eight-inch thick maki sushi roll that weighs about 13 pounds. A single roll, which I guarantee cannot be finished in one sitting, will set you back ¥15,000 (about $196). Each of these gargantuan roll contains 24 individual ingredients laid out on six feet of rice and seaweed prior to rolling.
How does one eat such a massive maki? Sliced into wheels and quartered like a pie, obviously. Amazingly, this single roll is on the menu and can be ordered by any patron willing to part with the cash, and also able to provide two days notice to the chef.
