Letter: Two unsatisfied customers
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.DAISY WAUGH is right on the nail in her restaurant review of Tatsuso (Review, 29 May). My main memory of Arisugawa in Percy Street is the slowly dawning realisation that we were never going to satisfy our hunger. We hadn't eaten in a Japanese restaurant before and asked the (English) waitress's advice. Although she must have known that what we had ordered wouldn't fill a small rodent, she said it was probably enough. A series of minute and delectable dishes arrived, each more expensive than the last. As we munched tiny nests of seaweed and thimbles of saki, businessmen around us tucked into tureens of soup and large platters of seafood. Unfortunately it wasn't the sort of place where you could say 'Bring me what they're having', and the bill by now was crippling. Our meal for two cost pounds 75, and we had to buy chocolate afterwards as well.
