Hotto Motto is a takeout bento chain with more than 2,400 locations across Japan.

There are currently no locations in Ashiya City. Nearby branches include Nishinomiya Tanaka and Nishinomiya Naruomachi in Nishinomiya City, as well as Kobe Tomoda in Nada Ward and Isoage Koen-mae in Sannomiya. This will apparently be the chain’s first location in Higashinada Ward.

↑According to the address in the job listing, this appears to be the planned location. It was previously occupied by Leaf Osteopathic Clinic, which has since relocated elsewhere in Moriminamimachi.

Here’s the map↓

The address is Sun Life Tsuchiya 101, 1-6-11 Moriminamimachi, Higashinada Ward, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture.

What’s around Hotto Motto Konan-Yamate Moriminamimachi

↑It will be on the first floor of a building on the north side of National Route 2. Smart Golf Konan-Yamate Route 2 is immediately to the left, and Mori Police Box is to the right.

↑Head this way (east) and you’ll find Selva Konan-Yamate and other places, with Ashiya City farther ahead.

↑In the opposite direction (west), you’ll find PÂTISSERIE Aile, Sanuki Udon Banno-ya, the pasta and wine restaurant Piacere, Anello Panini KOBE, and more.

↑This is the view across the street.

Finally

Since there are no Hotto Motto locations in Ashiya City, people living in the western part of the city may soon be able to pick up their meals by making the short trip to Konan-Yamate. Having a bento chain nearby is always handy on busy days, isn’t it? We’ll let you know when it opens!
