Description: Some sources give 松 for the first character in the name of the restaurant (also reading 'SHŌ', but with a different meaning), but this is incorrect - see the second large image. In modern Japanese, the simplified character 栄 is often used for the second character in the restaurant's name, instead of the one given here.
