The first
thing guests notice when arriving at the newly renovated Fujiyama Japanese restaurant, perched on top of the Avari
Towers iconic skyscraping hotel, (tallest building in Karachi)

general manager and amateur photographer Gordon Gorman, with a
portion of the proceeds donated to the hotels corporate social
responsibility program aimed at assisting local charities.
The highly polished black lacquered tables are cleverly
matched with bright red and sparkling white leather chairs,
which blend in well with the overall decorative theme of the
new look eatery, which is both eclectic and yet very Japanese,
with bold use of the primal colors associated with all things
Japanese, including white, black and red.
Dominating the layout of the spacious restaurant are two
massive tepanyaki grills, each seating 10 diners, who can
enjoy sizzling Japanese specialties from the restaurants

menu, specially designed for busy business people on the move,
and welcomes children for lunch and dinner with a special
junior Samurai menu.
