A collection of short phrase cards from Komaba Shokudo

Q:

I'm taking classes at the Hongo campus. I love the menu on the second floor of Komaba, but I have classes at Hongo during the weekday lunch hours, so I can't go. Would it be possible to extend the opening hours to at least weekday evenings or weekend lunches? Thank you for your consideration

A:

Regarding your request to open on the second floor on weekday evenings and weekends, we regret to inform you that we are currently short-staffed and barely able to operate on the first floor alone. Furthermore, given the number of customers in the entire cafeteria, it is currently difficult to open on the second floor during the requested times, and we are very sorry that we are unable to accommodate your kind request.
While it will be for a limited time or on a spot basis, we will consider adding the second floor menu when the first floor shortens its hours during spring and summer vacations. In that case, we would like to inform you in advance of the period and menu.
