Description:

about women who worked as waitresses in a café in Ueno, Tokyo. The strong and graceful women who lived are all, all, endearing. --Harada Hika This latest work from the author of "The Two with the Sash" depicts the lives of ordinary women who lived from the Taisho to the Showa era through the work of "waitresses," a job that was a mirror reflecting the times. In a corner of Ueno, Tokyo, is the not-so-popular "Café Saigyo." This place of relaxation for local residents, which also serves as a restaurant and coffee shop, was home to a diverse group of waitresses who entertained the customers. There is Taiko, who attracts attention with her makeup in the style of Takehisa Yumeji, Sei, who is anxious because her novel writing training is not going well, and Sonoko, an older newcomer who surprises the kind-hearted but lying Midori with her bold lies. They all worked cheerfully at "Saigyo" and left to find their own paths... "Our story from 100 years ago," about women who worked as waitresses from the Taisho to Showa eras.
