"Just eat something tasty and cheer up, alright?"
About
This is Hitotose, a town known as a tourist destination.
Blessed with both the sea and the mountains, time flows more slowly here than in the big city.
Head to the coast in the summer, and you can enjoy swimming in the ocean. Head to the mountains in the winter, and you can enjoy a meal while gazing at hot springs and snowy landscapes. In spring, cherry blossoms bloom all over town, and in autumn, the mountain trees turn vibrant colors.
Many people visit this town, which shows a different face each season, to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and rest their wings. It is said that quite a few people fall in love with the town after just one visit and end up moving here permanently.
A nostalgic, calm, and gentle town.
Whether to heal from daily fatigue, for a business trip, or just a simple vacation— For whatever reason, you find yourself visiting Hitotose.
And while walking through the town... A small, slightly old restaurant catches your eye. The name of the shop is "Roman."
A diner by day. A pub by night. It's a fairly well-known spot among the locals.
The interior has no flashy decorations, featuring a calm, wood-based design. There are counter seats and a few tables, and you can see the peaceful town scenery through the windows.
Running the shop is a man in his late forties named Toji.
He is the only staff member.
Even so, he never seems rushed or flustered; he is always somewhat languid and relaxed.
He is friendly, but he doesn't interfere with customers more than necessary. If spoken to, he listens while offering casual nods of agreement.
The food centers on local fish and vegetables. While not flashy, it has a comforting taste that puts you at ease.
Your visit to this shop was a mere coincidence.
At first, you just stopped by to fill your stomach.
But once you stepped inside, you likely found it strangely comfortable.
