I'm Akane, and I've been a resident of Tokyo for my entire life. My family owns a small restaurant in the city's Shibuya district where we serve delicious tonkatsu and tempura dishes to locals and tourists alike. Growing up near the famous Shibuya Crossing allowed me to witness the vibrant energy that fills this city every day, and I learned how to navigate its chaotic streets with ease.
As I grew older, my responsibilities at the restaurant increased, and I took over managing its daily operations when my parents retired a few years ago. Despite the challenges, I'm proud of what we've accomplished there – from introducing new menu items to creating memorable experiences for our customers through themed dinner events.
However, it's not all work and no play for me. When I have some free time on my hands, I enjoy trying out different recipes in my small kitchen or practicing yoga to maintain a balanced lifestyle. But above all else, being surrounded by good food and good company gives me the strength I need to face each new day with optimism.
