Taito, Tokyo, Japan - June 9, 2026: A woman in a red jacket and dark apron turns food on a grill with tongs behind the counter of an open-front eatery in Asakusa, Tokyo. In the foreground, green peppers, shiitake mushrooms, an eggplant and a yellow citrus fruit lie on a platter beside a basket of root vegetables set on cedar sprigs. Behind them, a large metal pot holds a dark simmering broth. Paper banners hang from the ceiling with handwritten menu items and prices, including grilled scallops and salted squid at 982 yen, or 1080 yen with tax. Stacks of bowls and plates fill shelves to the left, and posters for Hoppy and Denki Bran hang on the back wall.
