pluckaduck's manga / #food(6)

cute and heartwarming, but not particularly unique.

The restaurant owner acts as the mysterious narrator and bystander as he recounts to us various stories about the customers of his shop- the ups and downs of their lives, from the point where they first come into his shop. his role is very passive- he just fills in the info for these stories without moralistic judgment of these individuals. they're mundane, grounded, and relatable, and never fail to be interesting. it's not particularly deep but they are diverse, and the shop serves as the focal point for these individuals from different areas of life to connect over food and stuff, develop friendships and bonds, and share their stories with other customers... overall, this manga is quite soothing and heartwarming.
