Question: I heard there was a nice Japanese restaurant in the US that serves food based on the...?
...customer's blood type. Where is it?
Interested in going to this restaurant (I think in Eastern USA). Supposedly you go in and they ask you your blood type, and the chef whips up a whole 5 course dinner or some kind of tasting menu based on your blood type. Super-expensive, apparently my friend paid $500 for himself and his girlfriend to eat there. I can't get ahold of him to ask him where it was, and I can't find anything on GOOGLE about any such type of restaurant like this. I need to know!!

There's a whole diet fad called the Blood Type Diet.

Nearly all scientists consider it nonsense, but that doesn't mean that restaurants won't be setup to cater to it. I'm not aware of any particular restaurants, but any restaurant that charges $250 per person could easily design a meal to whatever constraints you want in your diet, including blood type constraints.

Tasting menus are fun, and $250 apiece is not unusual for a tasting menu in a high-end restaurant. Having a special "blood type diet" may have been a special thing for your friend, or they may do it regularly, but it's mostly just a matter of focusing on certain foods and avoiding others. It doesn't take any particular culinary skills beyond the ones they'd ordinarily put into such a meal.

Advocates of the blood type diet would probably say that it tastes better since it's better for you, but I've rarely found that "better for you" tastes better. In fact, it's usually the opposite. The real trick would be making the food taste delicious DESPITE it's being better for you.
