This
is
a
long
story
but
it’s
worth
reading.
From
the
beginning
of
the
pandemic,
I
have
only
gone
out
to
one
restaurant
with
my
son
as
it
was
an
outside
place.
Yesterday
my
family
had
to
go
to
Hachioji
as
we
needed
to
buy
some
furniture
there.
This
was
just
more
than
30
minutes
away.
The
day
before
I
looked
up
any
restaurant
that
had
outside
seats.
When
I
saw
Aina
Cafe,
I
had
to
ring.
Reason
was
six
years
ago,
my
family
went
to
Hawaii
and
we
loved
the
food
there.
My
son
was
only
5
years
old
but
he
remembers
going
to
a
truck
with
beautiful
and
healthy
food.
Well,
it
looked
like
Aina
Cafe
had
similar
type
of
food.
When
I
rang
the
place,
staff
spoke
English
to
me.
This
was
helpful
as
my
Japanese
is
just
basic.
The
staff
was
very
helpful.
In
fact
when
I
was
there
most
of
the
staff
spoke
another
language
apart
from
Japanese.
This
is
very
helpful
to
foreigners.
When
we
got
there,
all
the
staff
were
so
nice.
Now,
coming
from
Japan,
almost
all
restaurants
have
wonderful
staff.
It’s
part
of
the
culture.
But
even
my
wife,
who
is
Japanese,
she
felt
so
comfortable
and
also
said
that
the
staff
is
wonderful.
The
food!
It
was
like
that
truck
in
Hawaii!
I
had
Chilly
shrimp.
The
chilly
wasn’t
so
hot
and,
to
my
understanding,
the
chilly
was
specially
prepared.
It
was
absolutely
amazing.
The
rest
of
the
dish
was
really
good
food
with
brown
rice.
All
of
the
smoothies
were
all
good
food
with
chia
seeds
(which
I
have
every
morning)
but
you
couldn’t
taste
it.
Whether
you
are
into
health
food
or
not,
this
is
the
place
to
go.
The
food
was
delicious.
All
seeds,
like
pumpkin
seeds,
it
all
worked
together.
So
even
if
you
are
not
into
health
food,
the
food
is
delicious.
Even
though
the
place
at
Hachioji
was
an
extra
10
minutes
distance
from
our
place,
we
will
DEFINIATELY
go
back.
Oh,
and
if
you
spend
a
certain
amount
of
money,
it’s
free
parking.
It’s
a
particular
company
for
parking
so
if
you
are
bringing
your
car,
just
ring
and
ask.
There
are
a
number
of
these
parking
around
Aina
Cafe.
And
the
food
is
basically
normal
price.
I
thoroughly
recommend
this
place.
It’s
not
just
a
place
to
eat
when
going
to
Hachioji
for
doing
something
else.
I
will
try
to
find
something
else
around
Aina
Cafe
just
to
go
back!
