Vienna resterateur starts an opera festival
OperaThe conductor and violinist Joji Hattori retired a while back to Vienna to run a Japanese restaurant on the Krugergasse.
But he still conducts the Vienna Chamber Orchestra on the side, as it were, and he’s now opened an opera venture.

‘A large selection of food trucks will offer culinary delights,’ he promises.
