Follow the bank of the Koitogawa river until you reach the beach. From there a path of white seashells will lead you to the Chibineko Kitchen. Step inside, they'll be expecting you. These are the directions Kotoko has been given. She arrives at the tiny restaurant, perched right by the water, early in the morning. Still reeling from the sudden death of her brother, she's been promised that the food served there will bring him back to her, for one last time.

Nagi Hayakawa is facing an impossible choice. Should she agree to marry her boyfriend, despite being ill and not knowing how many years she has left to live, or should she protect him from future heartbreak by refusing? Desperate for advice from the one person no longer there to give it - her mother who died years before - she reserves a table at the Chibineko Kitchen.

Prima un viaggio in treno da Tōkyō, fino a una cittadina di mare nella penisola di Bōsō. Poi una passeggiata lungo la spiaggia, fino a un vialetto di conchiglie. È lì che si trova “Da Chibi”, una delle poche locande dove, secondo alcuni, viene ancora servito il kagezen: il vassoio d’ombra, il pasto tradizionale giapponese che si cucina per chi non c’è. Le voci narrano che, dopo che il piatto viene messo in tavola, accadano cose strane, che sia possibile mettersi in contatto con la persona di cui più si sente la mancanza.
