Butler's last day

Saturday, December 22nd was the final day for Mr. Shimaji's officially certified battlers.


Shimaji : "Butler has been with me for three years, helping me with all sorts of things. Now I'm graduating and returning to being a regular customer. I'm truly grateful for this friendship!"

The restaurant was a huge success that day, with customers finding out it was Butler's last day! Butler was also very pleased with the overwhelming turnout on his final day.


Shimaji: "Well, 2018 is almost over. Thank you for another great year. Next year, let's aim to become 'stylish yakuza' by experiencing beautiful, delicious, and unusual things!"

We, including Ms. Shimaji and all the staff at Salon de Shimaji, will continue to strive for excellence, and we look forward to your continued support in 2019!
