Just like how adding sugar to lemon makes the sourness milder, there are interactions between flavors. Adding sourness to a strong sweetness can make it refreshing, or sweetness can bring out the spiciness.

Amaji, Karashima, and Suya, three people in their 30s with surnames that mean "flavor," weave a fun and delicious second home life! We bring you the chemical reactions of life woven by the combination of flavors.
In this unique comics and illustration anthology, 11 artists depict distinctive shops and facilities along fictional alleyways that come together to form a single town. The town is called Euphemia, a place “where stories and memories are traded.” Along Maurilia Street in its old quarter (also known as Silver Cat Street), you’ll find a row of uniquely imagined shops and establishments created by each artist.
