Shoku Yuriha” is a small Japanese restaurant with one table and eight counter seats, located behind the ‘Nahaato’ theater in Kumoji, Naha City.
Many of you may have noticed the unusual name of the restaurant. The name “Yuriha” was taken from the initials of the daughter, Yumeka, the mother, Norina, in the middle, and the father, Hayato, on the right.
It is a very unique name, but it seems that many restaurants are named after family members.
