It may sound silly, but when I dreamt of opening a place like
this, I didn’t want big money. I just wanted to make a place
for people to rest. Maybe that’s a little too idealistic, but I
feel happy when people feel comfortable here. When a guest
tells me that they feel like my café is their home, it makes me
very happy. That is my dream for my café.
Because I am the only person working here, I actually get a
little nervous when there is more than one full table here. The
other day, there were three tables full, and I felt very sorry
for making people wait so long for food and drinks. When there
are other orchestra members here, they help me serve the
food and take orders. But the kitchen is only big enough for
one person. So if there are many people here, it may take
some time for the food to be prepared.
