Thanks a lot for the translation.

Shibuya, eh? It's been known as the tourist trap with touristy prices in recent decade, and this chapter kind of makes me thinking of it, despite Shibuya is an area I can say "my turf" that I know a lot of it along with Shimokitazawa.

Funnily enough, somehow when I checked Google Maps I already bookmarked the place as one of the places I want to go, not sure where and how I heard the place beforehand. Might be checking it out just like what I did in the previous chapter. I already have my favorite Napolitan place, so I could be biased on checking on this one.

If you would be so kind to check it out 🙇🏻‍♀️ Also, if you ever go to Sendai, do try the Napolitan I mentioned (from their menu, i always go for the hamburg steak napolitan-yes the topping is hamburg steak 🤤 and watercress salad with the onion dressing 🤤) they have a shop conveniently located at the second floor at Sendai station.

Your comment about Shibuya is how I feel about Dotonbori (even though its always touristy, its just terrible nowadays), even though I have 3 places i like there, a udon joint, a ramen joint and zenzai joint but i hardly go anymore cause of tourists and just so crowded, i get overwhelmed.
And prices hike up so much, like the zenzai is almost close to sen yen, can you believe that? ZENZAI!

Their lunch time is long huh, 8.5 hours.
The shops I frequent have lunch time for about 2-2.5 hours from usually 1100-1400.
Then again maybe this is the norm as I haven’t been to much local spot in Jp.

Also the juxtaposition of the English and Japanese name of the spaghetti is hilarious.
