Joe Tomei here with Funky place Friday advance PR edition. The place is Commune6, a lovely coffee shop past Kendai and the Red Cross hospital. Nakamura san, the owner, has spent several years in New Zealand and the coffee shop is a bit off the beaten track. Their FB page is at https://www.facebook.com/commune6/ click on the link and take a look.
I say advance PR because The English Market (volume 2) will be held here on 29 April. The principle of the English Market is that all the vendors pledge to only use English. The entry is 500 yen (children under the age of 18 are free) It may seem strange for native speakers to pay 500 yen for the privilege of speaking English, but there are some great shops serving some delicious food, and it is to try and make the idea of speaking English a bit more real. The AJET members will be selling English books for very low prices. Hope to see you there!
