The US is deadly..

Q:

As I have repeatedly said, the rice is disgustingly bad.
The other menu items are also not of the same quality as the price. If they are going to operate as if they are on the student's side, they need to at least offer better value for money than Hotto Motto.

A:

Thank you for your comments regarding the rice and menu.
It is difficult due to rising prices and the 2024 problem, but we will continue to discuss with our staff how to improve the quality and propose menus that our members can enjoy.

A bookstore at or near the hospital..

A:

Would it be possible to have a bookstore in or near the hospital?
Or could you introduce a system that allows you to search for books in the bookstore and purchase them on your way out? I
would like to use it while I'm waiting.

The co-op bookstore is located near the last bus stop near the hospital, so alarms from the hospital don't reach it, making it difficult for sick people to get there.
There are also e-books and online purchases available.
However, as I noticed when I often went there when I was still able to move around, the books available at the University of Tokyo Co-op were many books that were not stacked up in regular bookstores, which was a new discovery for me, and I ended up buying some.

Q:

The inventory search system can be used outside the store.

I'm grateful that I can view the IMSUT cafeteria menu online..

Q:

I appreciate being able to view the IMSUT cafeteria menu online, but the image quality is so poor I can't read it. Please improve it

A:

Next time, I will try to post images with as many pixels as possible

As the renovation of the Central Cafeteria began, I used the Metro Cafeteria, but..

Q:

With the start of renovation work on the Central Cafeteria, I used the Metro Cafeteria, but due to the lack of mobile phone signal from some carriers, it is difficult to pay with cafeteria money.
Even if I prepare a barcode in advance when it is crowded, there is a risk that it will expire, making it difficult to use.
I would like to see measures such as improving the Wi-Fi in the Metro Cafeteria.

A:

We have begun considering installing event Wi-Fi from a carrier with relatively strong signal strength to help us get through the renovation period, so please wait a little longer

When will the Suzuki Umetaro bowl be available for purchase?

Q:

When will the Suzuki Umetaro Bowl be available for sale?
I've always wanted to try it but the timing never seemed right, and I've been dying to try the Suzuki Umetaro Bowl for the past five years! I
usually go to Hongo and rarely have a chance to go to Yayoi, so if you could make the menu public like Hongo Shokudo does, I'd be happy to be able to go to Yayoi on the release date. Please consider it!!

A:

Umetaro Donburi is served every Friday, with the next scheduled date being XX/XX (). As it is made with black rice, numbers are limited, so please come early

Imported juices have arrived..

Q:

Please stock imported juices.
I used to enjoy passion fruit and mangosteen juice, but they haven't been coming in recently and I'm having trouble.

A:

This is an imported product and
depending on the timing of your order, we may not be able to secure the product.

We try to place orders regularly, but
at the moment our supplier is out of stock.

We will continue to order and check stock frequently, so
please check the store from time to time and wait for the next shipment.

Make it easy to find the toilet location..

Q:

I think it would be better to make the location of the toilets easier to understand, and to post notices to people outside the campus

A:

Thank you for your feedback regarding the restroom signs for external visitors. This week, we have seen an increase in the number of overseas visitors, and we have received many inquiries. We would like to post the restroom signs

Following the earthquake that occurred on the Noto Peninsula..

Q:

In light of the recent earthquake on the Noto Peninsula, I was wondering if there was any way we could come up with a plan to donate a portion of sales to disaster relief efforts, or to promote Yamazaki Bread products, which are sending supplies to the affected areas.
I think there are many people, including myself, who feel bitter about their own powerlessness, so I wanted to be able to offer some support. I would appreciate your consideration.

A:

The University of Tokyo Co-op is collecting donations to support the victims and affected areas.
Donations will be delivered to the victims as relief funds through the Japanese Consumers' Co-operative Union, and will also be used as support funds for activities to support the affected areas.

This year's sake festival..

Q:

We hope that the sake and wine festivals will be held this year

A:

Regarding your inquiry, we are planning to hold a sake festival at the second cafeteria on Tuesday, February 13th. More details will be posted on our website and on posters in the near future, so please wait a little longer

Is there a plan to release a schedule book with the University of Tokyo logo?

Q:

I would like to know if there are plans to release the schedule book with the Tokyo University mark that was sold every year. It wasn't available at the Hongo branch, and it wasn't even sold at the Komaba Festival, so I asked the store clerk and they said that the release date hasn't been decided yet, but it will be the same as the one at Hongo

A:

Regarding the Todaicho Register that you inquired about, the 2024 edition is scheduled to be published around the end of December. We appreciate your patience for a little while longer. In addition, publication of the Todaicho Register is scheduled to end with the 2024 fiscal year
