食は君と僕とをつなぐ
食は心と心をつなぐ
食はいのちを恵みのいろに染め
食は笑顔をもたらし
食はひとの絆を深め
食は愛をはぐくみ
食は会話を生み
食は国と国とをつなぎ
食は世界をつないでいく
幸福の輪は しあわせな食卓からはじまる。

– 書家 山口碧生 自詠

Food

Food connects you and me
Food connects your heart and mine
Food colors our lives with blessings from nature
Food brings smiles
Food deepens bonds
Food cultivates love
Food starts conversations
Food connects across countries
Food unites the world
The wheel of happiness begins with a happy dining table.

– Aoi Yamaguchi, Japanese Calligrapher, a poem for Ippuku

INSTALLATION PROCESS:

Installing the last piece. It was almost 5pm!

Then we removed the wood bar in front of the shutter…

Done!

Alef treated us with Japanese ramune soda… such a nostalgic flavor, bringing back childhood memories…

Cheers!
