Things That Changed on Nishitsu This Week
There are two this week.
We started Nishitsu Takeout
We started “A roundup of restaurants offering takeout in Nishinomiya and nearby areas,” or “Nishitsu Takeout(not really an abbreviation, and we’re just calling it that ourselves)” for short.
With demand for takeout rising because of the coronavirus situation, we turned it into a content feature.
Now you can casually enjoy the flavors of “that place” or “this place” you’ve been wanting to try, right at home through takeout.
We’re making it based on listing requests from restaurants, so we’d be happy if you could tell restaurant owners, “There’s a site called Nishinomiya Tsushin that will promote your shop for free!”
We couldn’t change the icon for the “Applaud” feature at the end of articles (Excuse, Week 4)
This is still the same thing we’ve been saying since three weeks ago.
This thing we added to the end of articles three weeks ago↓

This icon.
We said we’d make it bigger, but we’ve left it alone for four whole weeks now.
“Well, you see, this week because of corona, takeou…” Yes, that’s our excuse.
This week’s total applause count is 89. Last week it was 106, so… huh?? Wait???? It went down?!
Still, to everyone who applauded, thank you so much!!!!!
Now that the applause has gone down too, we really do need to make the icon bigger already, don’t we? Next week for sure!
Tips We Received This Week
This week, believe it or not, we received 15 tips!
It’s moving, especially when going out is difficult because of the coronavirus situation!
Here are a few that we’ve already turned into articles!
- A roundup of restaurants offering takeout in Nishinomiya and nearby areas
- Additional temporary closures for Jankara and more
Next week, we plan to turn the opening information and other tips we received this week into articles!
