This week’s roundup
This week, the yakiniku restaurant “Gyuubei Souan” at Gardens drew a lot of attention. It clearly looks like an expensive place, so we’re guessing many people visited the article because they were curious about what it’s like.
What surprised us a little was the article about the “Hyogo Prefecture Private Elementary, Junior High, and High School Information Session” held at Hotel Hewitt Koshien. The article was published on the 8th, but it has already climbed all the way to 2nd place in the weekly ranking, drawing quite a lot of attention. It seems that Nishinomiya has a relatively high percentage of families who send their children to private schools, so that may be part of the reason.
This week, we had a paparazzi-style raccoon snapshot and plenty of tips from readers! There are still some tips we’ve received that we haven’t been able to turn into articles yet, but we’ll publish them one by one! We’re truly grateful and moved that people are sending us information during this hot summer!
If you have anything, please feel free to send it our way!
Nishitsu will keep updating every day through Obon too, bringing you timely local topics!
