Sad Day

On Sunday, June 29th, my friends Ayako and Akihiro Naka closed their restaurant, Small Talk. It was a sad day! My friend and I sat there for 3 hours chatting with other regulars and savoring Small Talk food for the last time. Some of the people I hadn't talked to before except to greet them, but we had a common experience to share.
They don't have any plans yet except to get the shop cleaned out and get Ayako's health checked out. Then they will be moving on to the next step.
We still have plans to go to Costco together, go to other restaurants together, etc.!

At the time of this post on July 4th you can still go to their website and see pictures of the restaurant under "About Us."

Small Talk

My favorite restaurant in my area is Small Talk. It is owned and operated by Akihiro and Ayako Naka. I was introduced to the restaurant by Akihiro's mom. She is a member of our church. I am now a regular there! I recommend anything on the menu. I think there are only about 2 things on the menu I have never tried.
Akihiro has been working on a website and so has been taking pictures at the restaurant. Last Saturday night when I went I got to be a model. Here are the pictures that turned out...
