A shop where you can smile naturally.
It's hard to find on the second floor of the building, but there are several free parking lots nearby.
Simple and sturdy rather than fancy shops.
We understand how to serve our customers.
Of course, considering the price and taste
It's not expensive.
I would like to continue to do my best for the local people and customers from far away.
This is a great store that I am grateful to have met.
