Went to this Thai restaurant in Ayase where there's a small Muay Thai ring INSIDE the restaurant and you can watch matches live while dining and drinking.
They had 5 matches scheduled for the evening and the pic is from the 4th match of the night (photos were not allowed for the main event). The guy in blue is apparently a former champion from some major venue in Thailand. His opponent, the Japanese guy in black, fought well but was no match for the former champion.
One thing about this restaurant is that you get to watch the moves exchanged between fighters literally right before your eyes. I mean, our table was probably just about 1 meter away from the ring.. I guess sometimes fighters get knocked outside the ring and end up landing on customers' tables..
By the way the food there was OK too. The service exactly wasn't the best but oh well. I don't think people go there for food nor service anyway..
Anyways, the atmosphere is very unique and I definitely recommend this place to anyone that likes martial arts. Not very often that you get to watch matches this close at a reasonable price.
