A touching novel about grief, love, loneliness, and the healing power of delicious food.

After her mother's death, Akiko quits her job at a publishing house and reopens an old diner, converting it into a cafe.
Former regulars don't understand Akiko's vision—her cafe has a minimalist interior, no television, and the main dishes on the new menu are soup and bread. What about loud gatherings? How can one eat food without spicy spices? But for Akiko, it's all about the ability to truly see and feel, to pay attention to the essence. Despite anxiety and judgment, she humbly does her job, enjoying quiet conversations with her only kitchen assistant and evenings with her beloved cat, Taro.
Such is her simple life, filled with sadness and joy.
