Actually, Altria, there are a lot of wealthy people in Japan who are immune to the recession. I was in the lobby of the Ritz-Carlton one afternoon last week and the afternoon tea was packed with elderly ladies and few younger ones, too. Not one table available. They also told me their restaurants are fully booked for Christmas and New Year.
For many people, a visit to a 5-star hotel is a once-a-year treat. I can see the Shangri-La afternoon tea being very popular.
