Papyrus is a restaurant opened by Mr. Yoshimura Sakuji, a rotund, mustachioed Waseda University professor you might have seen on TV, where he is a frequent guest.
The man is a famous egyptologist who tries to make as much money as he can from his various ventures so that he can dig more and deeper holes in the Egyptian desert. In this case, therefore, we don't know if this restaurant is Egyptian as Anwar Sadat or rather as King Tut. Note the address of the restaurant: "Egyputo Koukogaku Bldg" means "Egyptian Archeology Building". The folks working at Papyrus are mostly his students: there are no living or dead Egyptians that I know of in the kitchen. Further, the menu includes stuff that has more to do with tastes in Waseda than with Egypt: Japanese style hamburgers, for example.
Sounds attractive? No? I thought so.
