Sankyu Day

OK, this is going to be difficult to explain. Today was the anniversary of a bento (lunch box) shop close to Chie’s office. So what do you do on your shop’s anniversary?

Well, you make all the bentos 390 yen. Because 3 = san and 9 = kyu. Put together that is sankyu, which is about the same as when Japanese people say “thank you”.
