【Signed Edition with Bonus Booklet “The Outcasts”】
Cold stew delivered by a food delivery service, meatballs from a Scandinavian furniture store, meat sushi at a bargain izakaya……
A melancholic culinary novel in which an up-and-coming writer looks up at towering skyscrapers from afar and laments the dissatisfactions of urban life.

 

The idea that meals are always delicious, satisfying, and make you happy was, after all, a lie.
Recommended by Hayako Takase (author of “I Hope You Can Eat a Delicious Meal”)!

After falling ill, I order delivery for the first time, but the stew that arrives smells strangely of cold, congealed oil…… (Ghost Restaurant).
At a class reunion after ten years, a Tabelog URL for a “Fully Private Japanese Fusion Bar ★ All-You-Can-Eat Meat Sushi! 3-Hour All-You-Can-Drink Included for ¥2,980” is sent to the class LINE group (Girl Meats Boy).
Thirteen melancholic culinary stories exploring the malaise and loneliness of urban life through memories of unpalatable meals.
