Neon lights in Nagoya

I ate dinner with my son when I visited Nagoya in 2013 and took this picture of the neon lights in the city. The name of the restaurant is Koukakusai. It is a taiwanese restaurant. My son who lived there at the time says that the taiwanese restaurants were usually owned by chinese. Taiwanese ramen originated in Nagoya.
