Plot Concept: Welcome to Nekoya-a quaint little eatery that specializes in western-style cuisine. The diner gets decent local business from normal folk around town, but behind the scenes, it opens its doors to customers of a more unique, exotic variety. Every seven days, people and creatures, from different corners of another world, flock to the restaurant to munch on their favorite dishes. And despite the wide range of patrons, there’s always something delicious available-even for those with the most particular preferences and palates.
So, take a seat and get comfortable. We’ll make a regular out of you yet!
