       | And yea it's a takeoff on Golden Gai.

       | private bar or restaurant in Japan, and if not speaking Japanese
       | (but that's a different topic).

       | I came across an episode of "Japanology" on Youtube about cafes
       | (which is a surprisingly interesting series produced by NHK --
       | each episode has a generally heart-warming or touching twist to
       | the general theme it covers). And the ending is exactly about a
       | jazz cafe that closed but was brought back for 2 weeks by its
       | loyal fans some years later. I imagine some of the ones described
       | here are in the same boat.
