Submitted 12/18/24. "Poké nagomi" is a restaurant serving bowls of raw fish over rice. "Poke" is a Hawaiian word meaning "to slice", and was used to refer to the pre-European practice of eating sliced raw fish, which transformed into the Japanes dish of sliced fish over rice (ポケ), now gone global (the accent on the anglicized spelling indicates that the word should be pronounced with two syllables). "Nagomi" (平和), meaning "peace", is the name of a Japanese philosophy for finding harmony, balance, and inner peace. On the glass window, there is also the standard "Halal" sign, written also in Arabic حلال.

Submitted 12/18/24. "Nosh" was borrowed into English to mean "eat, snack" from Yiddish "noshn" (or נאָש in Hebrew orthography), meaning "nibble", which is based on the Middle High German "naschen" with the same meaning.

Submitted 12/18/24. "Chai Chenak Cafe" is a Paikistani restaurant -- the name is written in Urdu (Arabic) script as چائی چناک کیفے on the small panel to the left. Chai (meaning "spiced tea") is a borrowing into English from Arabic or Russian, but originated in China as 茶 (or chá, in pinying). meaning "tea". "Cafe" as a coffee house, was borrowed into English from French, based on Italian "caffe" for the drink, which was borrowed from Turkish or Arabic. "Chenak" seems to be a type of tea associated with Tharparkar, Pakistan.

Submitted 12/18/24. "Rakkii" is the Romanized (English) spelling of Japanese ラッキー, meaning "lucky". "Ramen" is the romanized (English) spelling of ラメン, meaning long noodles, actually a borrowing from Mandarin 拉面 or "lāmiàn" in pinying, meaning "hand-pulled noodles". Low on the glass window, there is an ad for a delivery service whose Chinese name is written in pinying and characters.

Submitted 12/18/24. "Gyro" comes from Greek γύρο (circle) and "pita" comes from Greek πίτα (pie). "Taka taka" does not seem to be Greek although the lettering is a standardized way of making English mimic Greek orthography.
