Synopsis
The show centers on Choshokutei, a small restaurant in Tokyo's Taito ward, where a group of ten local residents share breakfast every morning before the shop opens. Each leads a troubled life, but they find comfort in their common meal, even though they don't say much to each other. One day, they learn that the drunk driver who killed the restaurant owner's son four years ago is about to be released from prison. At the time of his death, the son had uttered his final words to his wife-to-be, but in reality those words had been meant for Misako, an OL who is one of the ten people sharing breakfast at Choshokutei. Slowly, the truth of the past comes out. --Tokyograph
