The first Bulgarian restaurant in 30 years opened doors in Shiodome Building in Tokyo. The restaurant is called "Sofia", Bulgaria's Foreign Ministry announced.

The initiative for the opening of restaurant "Sofia" came from Meiji Dairies Corporation President Hisashi Nakayama, who is also Bulgaria's honorary consul to Japan.

Meiji Dairies Corporation has been producing Bulgarian yogurt in Japan since 1973.

"Sofia" is decorated in the traditional Bulgarian style and its owners expect it to become a preferred meeting spot for the Bulgarian community in Japan. It also aims to popularise Bulgaria in the country of the Raising Sun.
