Prego Accommodates Yen for Italian Food

With Japanese accounting for 5% to 10% of his customers, manager Roberto Rossi of Prego Ristorante in Beverly Hills decided that his menu needed an overhaul.

Now Prego offers what it believes to be the only Japanese-Italian menu in Southern California, with the names of all its dishes translated into Japanese.

The menu even offers a phonetic spelling of the Italian in Japanese so Japanese customers can order in Italian.
