Interview with the manager
What memorable experiences have you had with
customers?
At Gofu-so, I frequently have the privilege of hosting special
occasions, such
as children’s birthdays, weddings, and okuizome (a traditional ceremony
celebrating a baby’s first 100 days).
It’s a true honor to witness children grow with each visit and to be part of these important moments in their lives.
