" I quit my job and started this service, the healthy and gentle service I wanted most during the toughest postpartum period. "

by founder, Marika Sorimachi

“Why did you start Happy Tummy? ” Our customers often ask us this question. It all started when I was going through a difficult time. During my pregnancy, my body could only accept Japanese food. Ah, my body is made of Japanese food. I realized that. I want to eat healthy Japanese food for both my unborn baby and myself as a pregnant woman, but I can't seem to find it.  Restaurant food is delicious, but sometimes you end up ordering the same thing all the time, the flavors are strong and you get tired of them quickly, and you're worried about salt and preservatives. I wish my mom would come to New York. Deciding on a menu, making a list of ingredients, and shopping can be difficult. I wish there was a place that delivered Japanese side dishes to my home. I wonder how people who became mothers in New York did it. .I returned to work three months after giving birth and was busy and tired, struggling to survive every day. Even though it is an important period of postpartum recovery, you are not getting enough nutrition. Wouldn't it be great if I could make it my job to deliver the healthy Japanese food to people who feel the same way as me? ! Happy Tummy now continues to deliver meals to families, busy people with work, the elderly, and others in the New York area.
