S2019 E7 Lunchtime at the Taxi Company Canteen

本集简介

We visit the canteen of a taxi company in Tokyo to meet Hiroko Kawano. She's 77 years old but younger than ever, continuing her 34-year stint as the chef there. She acts as a mother figure for the taxi drivers, praying for their safety and cooking meals for 50 people. We then visit Niigata Prefecture, the largest producer of knitwear in Japan. Take a peek into the secret techniques behind the clothing made here, and relish the tasty lunches that people bring to the factory.

Number One in the IT Company Canteen

An IT company in Shibuya, Tokyo, treats its employees with a canteen where they can eat for free. Although the canteen only offers one meal, the daily special, the employees just love the organic cooking. Just before the canteen opens for lunchtime, we wait to see which employee comes to eat first. In another segment, we visit a group of ladies who are harvesting Nozawana greens, which are used to produce a very popular kind of Japanese pickles.

Lunch on the Run

Lunch for Rie Tamakoshi, a ward office employee in Shizuoka Prefecture, is far from conventional. She eats rice balls on the run! She's too busy balancing work and raising her kids to sit down and enjoy lunch. During her lunch break, she runs home while she eats, and once at her house, she does the laundry, cleans, and preps dinner before running back to her office again.

In another segment, we visit the southernmost prefecture of Okinawa to meet a public health nurse who has a surprising lunch of her own.
