To stop thinking about COVID-19, listen to the complaints of the young old man... Why do all my favorite izakaka/restaurants have to change or close?

Remnants of suki yaki/shabu shabu at the refurbished restaurant. 

I liked the place the way it was...

Some places get refurbished... Some places change their menus... Some places make portions smaller and items more expensive... Some places lose the previous quality and it just doesn't taste good anymore... And some places close.

To be continued...
