There’s a popular restaurant here that was completely destroyed by a fire but decided to reopen. “Marusho” was a popular restaurant on Senbero Street in front of JR Sendai Station. The shop, which came to Sendai after the Great East Japan Earthquake, will reopen next March with a promise to give back to the city. A small alley in Chuo 1-chome, Aoba Ward, west exit of JR Sendai Station. It’s known as “Senbero Street” where you can get drunk for as little as 1,000 yen, lined with inexpensive izakaya and standing bars. A vacant lot in the corner. There used to be a shop here known as the “sacred place of rice crackers.” This is “Marusho, a specialty of grilled motsuyaki.” It became popular for its cheap and tasty menu items such as dengaku (30 yen) and takoyaki (100 yen). People passing by said, “Marusho is the best place for drinking. I have never had such a place before.” “I used to go there often.” “The atmosphere is old-fashioned, and the atmosphere here is old-fashioned. The skewers are cheap and delicious at 80 yen each. In such a favorite store was December last year. Reporter’s report: “The fire site is located at the west exit of Sendai Station, in a narrow alley lined with restaurants. Earlier, I heard a sound like an explosion.” The fire destroyed the building where Marusho was located. Although more than 20 pump trucks and other vehicles were sent, it took 12 and a half hours to put out the fire, and the area in front of Sendai Station was in chaos. In September last year, Masahiko Murakami (61), president of the city’s Dream Link restaurant chain, which previously operated Marusho, visited the store. Dream Link President Masahiko Murakami: “We’ve caused you all a lot of trouble.” What we did for disaster-stricken areas in the form of a “reconstruction support bar” ended up causing us even more trouble. problem after 10 years. I’m very sorry.” In 2011, the Great East Japan Earthquake occurred. President Murakami opened the “Reconstruction Support Bar,” the predecessor of Marusho. Under the slogan of producing locally for local consumption and donating all profits, about 15 million yen from sales were donated to the three prefectures affected by the disaster. Thanks to this, Marusho has taken root in the city. It is reported that due to its convenient location in front of Sendai Station, the building’s management company received many requests to open another restaurant after the fire. However, knowing the company’s history as a reconstruction support bar, we did not provide it to other stores. Sento Housing Center Chairman Eiji Fujino Q: Have you received many requests? “There are quite a few. Location is location. For the sake of Sendai, I hope you continue to do what you’ve been doing.” Dream Link President Masahiko Murakami: “Good luck to Marumase. I want him to succeed.” Come back. I’ve received a lot of encouragement from people like, “You’re doing badly.” Personally, I understand that (the owner) made this decision in response to the citizens’ voices.” Or… President Murakami has had a hard time. However, with the support of those around him, he decided to revive Marusho. “Thank you for your continued support today. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.” Since last year, we have been holding repeated meetings with the building’s management company about reopening. Dream Link President Masahiko Murakami: “This is a bar where locals can have fun and relax. We want to pay tribute by creating such a space more than ever before. A restaurant where people of all ages can come and have fun.” ” Even after the fire, the store remained in its thoughts and vowed to repay Sendai, which supported its restoration… More than two years after the fire, the lights on Senbero Street will be back on next March.
