I was having an excellent ramen at Tomochan together with M. yesterday – and even won a cool tote bag, because I ate up like a good boy does, and the bottom of the plate said we have a winner!

And so I asked the waiter why several Manga characters in the big painting at the center of the restaurant are holding scraps of paper in their hands… turns out these are kind of communication devices for the whereabouts of its individual owners.
