On The Job-Japan Town

Well, back at Jtown again. I have been here numerous and yet I never really noticed this fan underneath the pedestrian crossing that spans Webster St. However, I noticed it this time as I was crossing the street.

There are several supermarkets that serve the needs of the community. All provide the basic needs that any japanese person would need in daily life. The great thing about japanese supermarkets is their nice deli section. You can get anything from rice bowls to bentos to sushi.
This particular supermarket was bought out several years ago by the current owner. There is a chain of these supermarkets along the peninsula and in Silicon Valley. Im not sure if they have locations in Japan. If so, do they go by the same name?
