Our protaganist Inogashira Goro (Matsushige Yutaka) is working at the start of the New Year. It starts with a strange dream while taking a short nap inside his car which reminded him how hungry he feels. He tries to revisit two of the shops where he went before but for reasons, he cannot eat there. He decides to settle for any good shop he can find within the area where he has a job. He found a nearby shop called "Saisai Shokudou" which serves delicious Shanghai home cooked meals. Unfamiliar with the cuisine, he asks proprietress (Miyazaki Yoshiko) to help him choose the dishes. Later he goes to Tsudanuma, Chiba Prefecture where persistent client Sugihara (Kitamura Soichiro) asks him to stay at an office to continue working on a proposal. Before he knows it, it is already late in the night. Feeling hungry once again, he goes off to find some place to eat. He discovers a steakhouse called "Texas"...
