SNOW DOES NOT BREAK A WILLOW | 柳に雪折れなし⁣
⁣
There’s a Japanese proverb - 𝘺𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘨𝘪 𝘯𝘪 𝘺𝘶𝘬𝘪 𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘢𝘴𝘩𝘪 - that symbolises the strength in adaptability and flexibility to overcome life’s hardships. ⁣
⁣
We have had a handful of (mild) hardships handed to us that have taken a slight physical and mental toll this week. The exhaustion came creeping up. Then Saturday came, and somehow you, our customers, really showed up. ⁣
⁣
It really is such a beautiful thing to welcome new guests, compare how cold our hands are (lol), fix the slightly knocked out of place light fitting with you before you’ve even ordered, and learn about the much-missed rainbow bridge cat behind that adorable tattoo of yours. ⁣
⁣
We are always so grateful, through the ups and downs, to go on this Japanese food journey with all of you. Sometimes we just need a day like yesterday to remind us of that. ⁣
⁣
So as the willow does not break, we shall adapt ever so slightly today, Sunday 13th September, and postpone opening to 13:00, for an extra hour of bending, not breaking.

BRIEF INTERRUPTION | 束の中断⁣
⁣
Just a few more weeks until our summer menu items are gone! Well. At least until next year. Also, if you haven’t yet tried the 𝘯𝘢𝘴𝘶 𝘯𝘰 𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘣𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘩𝘪, please do, because it’s delicious, and we really love recommending (and eating) it 🥰⁣

FRIENDSHIP | 友情

Some of you might know the face in the middle here. Today, we’re saying a fond ‘see you later’ to this smile.

Saharu, along with husband, Phil, were vital to how Yane opened in Chorlton. Phil spent 10 hours helping us prep in the kitchen the day before we opened. Saharu - as many have experienced - is everything I (Lisa) personally strive to be working front of house. Their devotion to Japanese hospitality - omotenashi - is something Duncan and I will always be grateful for. We wouldn’t be where we are now without them. They are an utterly formidable front/back of house combo, and we cannot thank them enough for how they helped to shape Yane into the welcoming and friendly place it is known to be.

Saharu is someone we have had the absolute pleasure of working with for over 8 years - her infectious smile, positivity, and fabulous personality will stay with us at Yane as she moves on to bigger and better things at home in Japan.

We want to wish Saharu and Phil the best of luck in everything they do, and look forward to the day when we can welcome them back to our yane.

早春さん、お仕事お疲れ様でした。 🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♂️

NIHONSHU | 日本酒

Sake is a traditional alcoholic beverage made primarily from fermented rice, koji, yeast and water. The word sake/o-sake お酒 actually translates to ‘alcohol’, with the drink itself known as nihonshu 日本酒 - ‘Japanese alcohol’ - in Japan. Believed to date back as far as the 5th century BC, Its double fermentation process is unique, and with over 1700 licensed breweries in Japan, the choices are almost endless.

Our taster is a great introduction to the different types, brewing methods, temperatures and flavours that nihonshu can become. We invite you to try our selection from our fabulous supplier, .

Wishing everyone a fantastic bank holiday weekend!
