Why only open on Saturdays and Sundays is that the owner, Onikubo's main job is a dentist, so he is busy with his main business on weekdays. 

 

The reason why this shop only opens on weekends, is because Ms. Onikubo is busy during weekdays. She is a dentist by profession. CIMG1465.JPG

 

 

When you come to Tsukishima on weekends, if you like cats, why don't you stop by? It is also open during the grass market in July (9th and 10th in 2016).
