Japan's first 'naked restaurant' opens in Tokyo next month with draconian rules of entry - podgy prospective diners will be weighed and ejected if found to be too fat.
Following the lead of establishments in London and Melbourne, 'The Amrita' - Sanskrit for 'immortality' - also has strict age restrictions, with only patrons between 18 and 60 allowed in, after they check in their clothes and put on paper underwear provided by the restaurant.
'If you are more than 33lb above the average weight for your height, we ask you refrain from making a reservation,' a list of rules posted on the restaurant's website states, explaining that patrons could be weighed if they do not appear to be within the correct weight range.

Guests found to be 'overweight' will be refused entry to the restaurant, which opens on July 29, and will not be entitled to a refund, its website points out. All payments must be made in advance on an online booking page.
The list of rules asks visitors not to 'cause a nuisance to other guests' by touching or talking to fellow diners. Tattooed customers are barred from entry.
Those who meet the restaurant's entry requirements will be asked to lock away mobile phones and cameras in a table-top box.
