Nice folks at Ortonome

We tried twice to call/knock-on the yakitori place next to the guest house unsuccessfully. No choice, but to drive out to try our luck. By now, we are learnt that everything needs at least 2 days advance booking here.
We tried to walk in to an Italian restaurant Ortonome (オルトマーレ)

They couldn't take us as they did not have extra ingredients for 5 pax. However, the couple was so sweet that they helped call at least 4 other restaurants before eventually finding some place for us. Saved us going hungry that night.
Definitely on our watchlist to eat at Ortonome one day.
