Loving Food

l went in this small restaurant that Madhupan recommended me, forgive me l forgot what its name but l cannot forget the food that l ate there.
(sorry, right now l'm hungry so l go to eat a mini pizza that l just made ... be back soon to go on)
Ok ... u can have a little glimpse at the end.
So as l entered inside l immediately liked the place, it was small, cozy, welcoming ... not like the usual restaurant with cute waitress girls that screams "IRASSHAIMASE~" with their flashing smile ... it means, in a nutshell: WELCOME! WHAT CAN I DO FOR YA?
but no, there was a man standing with a child in his arms ... now, l gotta tell this, l love japanese children, of course l love children internationally but the japanese ones ... somehow stand out. U should see them when they look at you with that small and vast open wide almond eyes ... It was so nice for me to meet at the first instance this a-little-bit-more than middle aged man with this child and both looking at me with surprised eyes!!!
WHAT? IS MY NOSE TOO LONG?
And with a simple smile he said "hai?" (yes?)
l sat down with ease, chose a simple menu and the amazing thing was that it was so cheap!!! 550 yen for 4~5 different dishes with acceptable portions accompanying a main dish ... WOW!!! ...when l finished l told him that l'll be back whenever l can. The food was so good and yet simple, l could really enjoy the food ... l went back there 3 more times and at the last time, l stopped the cook by his arm, that she herself brought me the lunch, and l told her (with food in my mouth) "sorry to stop you but your food is so OISHII (good) that l can feel that you cook with love ... ARIGATOO (thank you)"
She gave me a flashing smile (not like the cute waitress girls but a more innocent one) and after just 1 minute she brought me a dessert as present, a piece of cake ... l immediately ate a bite of it in front of her (and she was there waiting my comment on it) then l said "mmmhhh....mmmhhh...mmh? did u make this cake?" do you know what she answered? ...no.
LOL we laughed! .... l went away with a smile of satisfaction .... AH but l forgot to tell ya about the picture!!! well, they had this stuff that usually it is used to do all kind of scientific experiments like old times, may be even now, but they were using it to make coffee!!! EEEHH? Yesss, exactly.
Practically if somebody order a cup of coffee ... have to wait a day! because it is filtered drop by drop as u can see in the pic. LOL l liked it ... for me it means PATIENCE.
