It's the kind of neighbourhood nook where the passers-by are as likely to be local cats as tourists. Among its regulars are Chinatsu Yukimura, a mysterious young woman who always leaves behind a napkin folded into a ballerina; Hiroyuki Numata, a middle-aged man who has come back to the neighbourhood in search of the happy life he once gave up; and Shizuku, the owner's teenage daughter, who is still coming to terms with her sister's death as she falls in love for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Torunka serves a perfect cup of coffee, but what it really offers these assorted souls is something far more lasting.
