What is this?

These stones are called "Tomeishi"—a stone placed in Japanese gardens to mark the areas where entry is prohibited.
There are two such stones at DOMO.
One of them is placed at directly straight ahead as you enter the restaurant, right in front of a large door. It is placed there specifically to evoke the impression that there is something hidden behind the large door. Anyone would often pause and wonder, "Why is there a stone placed in front of a door?" In this case, however, the door is just a decorative design feature of the restaurant, and the Tomeishi is placed there to discourage anyone from trying to open the door.
The other one is placed on the south side of the Garden, atop a bridge over a pond. This Tomeishi is simply to indicate "No Entry" as is the intent of placing a Tomeishi.
When you visit Japan, please do not enter the area beyond where a Tomeishi placed because any Tomeishi is consciously, purposefully and intentionally placed where it is placed.

Dear Valued Customers,
We apologize that, during the hours of dinner service today on the 29th of May, the delivery of meals for a certain number of customers was delayed, exceeding reasonable expectations.
This was due to a slip-and-fall accident involving a waitperson in the kitchen, and the unfortunate incident resulted in a temporary suspension of the kitchen operation for approximately 20 minutes.
I would like to express my gratitude to everyone for your understanding.

Onigiri
After a visit and stay by a group of young visitors from Japan for several days, on the morning of their hectic journey back home, I made onigiri (rice balls) for the first time in a long while.
It is one of the quickest home-cooked dishes to prepare, and one that can be eaten conveniently.
On that morning, onigiri with salted salmon were made, but onigiri can be made and be enjoyed with a wide variety of ingredients.
At DOMO, we often eat onigiri as a quick and easy staff meal when things get busy.
I'm thinking of adding onigiri to DOMO’s “take-out only menu” soon.
