神保町で私が好きな店のひとつ「はせ部」。この夏ほぼ一か月休業していて、9月になってから2度ほど入ったのですが、今日行ってみたら、このような貼り紙が…。 One of my favorite restaurants in Jimbocho is Hasebe. It had been closed for almost a month this summer, and I’d managed to stop by twice in September. But when I went today, I found this notice posted on the door...
う~む。思い返すと、やたら長かった夏季休業も、店主の体調とかあったのかもしれません。 一日も早く復帰してくれるとよいのですが。 Come to think of it, that unusually long summer break might have had something to do with the owner’s health. I just hope he’ll be back on his feet and reopen the place as soon as possible.
【追記】 とある筋によると「交通事故らしい」とのことした。店主の一刻も早いご快復をお祈りします。 Update: According to some sources, it seems to have been a traffic accident. I sincerely wish the owner a speedy recovery.
