The merchant journeyed to Miyanoshita, Hakone, with an eye toward “Naraya Cafe,” considering it as a possible space for a friend’s exhibition. The cafe was overseen by a genial man named Doi Yoshio, though Goro privately called him "Momi-yan," a playful reference to his impressive sideburns. Doi proved remarkably accommodating, indulging Goro's requests with generous ease; he readily ordered the cafe’s signature dish – a distinctive monaka shaped like a gourd and filled with sweet sesame paste.
