[Closed] Nakano's 100-year-old bar "Fish Cuisine Ranman" closes

Thank you for your patronage of our store over the years.
Thank you very much.

Ranman will be closing down.
To all of you who have been frequent visitors,
I am grateful from the bottom of my heart.

Our shop is supported every day by everyone's comments that "It's delicious."
That one word alone made me think, "I'll do my best tomorrow too."

Thank you for loving and supporting this store.
Whenever I think of your smiling faces, I feel sorry.
"I'll wait forever."
Hearing that voice made my heart clench,
At times, I find myself overcome with an indescribable sense of sadness.

Notice of store closure,
Your expressions will be clouded,
When I think about it,
My heart feels like it's going to burst.

I (the owner) myself,
I was a customer at the store a few years ago.
In fact, there was a lot of turmoil going on with "Ranman" at the time.
It was pushed into a situation where it could not survive.
This led to another turmoil,
I ended up becoming the nominal owner.
I even stayed inside the store for a while.
He is a regular customer who is full of consideration and care.
I knew the store was full.
I saw everyone leaving the restaurant saying, "It was delicious."
I feel proud of myself for just standing there.
I remember being happy.

As the owner, I am very sorry to say this,
As a customer,
A life where Ranman can no longer eat fish is
My heart is filled with sadness, thinking how empty and boring it all is.
on the other hand,
I'm glad that Ranman was in my life.
I believe this from the bottom of my heart.
I feel like saying thank you, Ranman.
In happy times, sad times, and nights filled with regret,
Even on a dreary winter day, I enjoyed a drink at the shop.
My life has been so much richer since I met Ranman.

When I became the owner,
The oldest regular customer,
"Thank you for saving this store."
He said,
Those words dwelled within me like a small flame,
I managed to extend its life somehow,
That was also for a few years.

I feel sorry for everyone and regret for myself.
It's piercing my heart.

It's about time to put down my chopsticks at Ranman.

As a customer, thank you for the meal, Ranman.

As a restaurant, we appreciate the meal and everyone's smiles.

We at Ranman are
I was very happy to meet you all.
I am eternally grateful.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone.
