A first meal with a new friend at COCIDO

Haruru.1002 went to COCIDO for her first meal with someone she had become friends with at a bus stop. Although it was their first meal together, the conversation kept coming as if they had known each other for much longer.

From haruru.1002’s past meal account posted in July, edited with permission.

A bus-stop acquaintance became a meal together

She described finding one topic after another to talk about. The easy conversation made her want to cherish this new connection.

High hopes for a paella course at COCIDO

COCIDO was full even though it was a Thursday. She had seen favourable reviews and arrived with high hopes for the Mediterranean paella course.

The food did not live up to her expectations. In her account, none of the dishes particularly impressed her, and she wondered whether Japanese food now suited her own taste better.

Already thinking about the next meal

She wanted to find another place for their next outing. The food had not become a favourite, but the conversation and the new friendship were things she wanted to continue.
