so the way it works is, you get 13 courses of AYCE and then you're allowed to pick an unlimited amount of: salmon, lean tuna, fatty tuna, and wagyu (all of it except the lean tuna was torched) – you pick the amount you want to eat before each round also the sake was p solid (relative to the price: free)
