[Cloud USA][staff] Naoko’s “rainy” adventure.

— Written and compiled by: Stephe, Managing Editor ^@@^

Our Cloud USA YouTube moderator Naoko (a,k.a. harudoful), who lives in Japan, came upon some cool Rain stuff while visiting a friend in Nagoya this weekend.

The name of this ramen restaurant is Chomoran Men, and Rain ate there during the Nagoya stop (July 1 & 2, 2010) of his Rain Loves Japan ZEPP summer tour and left his autograph. Apparently, he made a doggone good impression, seeing as the shop’s management still remember exactly where he sat and pointed it out to Naoko. 🙂

For anyone in the vicinity who’d like to try the food there, here is the shop location courtesy of Naoko.

Naoko also sent us some pictures from closer to home. This restaurant, the Madan Tsuruhashi shop, is one that Rain visited while in Japan for his 2009 New Year’s fan meets in Osaka (1/14) and Tokyo (1/12). The shop’s management is still showcasing Rain’s autograph and items from that time period.
