Dôtonbori is the street to go restaurant crawling in Ôsaka (if you have the stomach). As there's a lot of venues, there's a lot of competition, so a lot of wacky stuff to draw the passer-by's attention.

If anyone knows why this restaurant is called Shôwa Hormone, please let me know. Shôwa, I can guess, is nostalgia for the post-war Shôwa era; but Hormone needs a good story behind it!

Thòm thèm (Vietnamese) is a slight craving for a delicious dish after you’ve already finished it. It is to be still hungry or thirsty because one hasn’t had enough.

Shemomedjamo means to continue eating past the point of being full just because the food tastes really good. This Georgian word literally means “I accidentally ate the whole thing.”
