Wise Sons Opens a New Location in Tokyo, Complete with a Mural of SF by Bernal Heights Artist

Bernal Heights artist Amos Goldbaum has brought the spirit of San Francisco to life in his latest mural—located in Japan. The painting was created for Wise Sons, a popular Jewish delicatessen founded in San Francisco’s Mission District, which opened its first location abroad in Marunouchi, a district of the Japanese capital near the Tokyo Station, just last month.

To celebrate the international expansion, owners of the deli commissioned Amos to create a mural on the wall inside the deli building that depicts the San Francisco cityscape. Custom elements within the mural’s landscape include replacing Twin Peaks with a colossal Mt. Fuji. So, if you ever find yourself in this part of Japan, be sure to stop in, take a look, and be on the lookout for the bagel-eating kaiju monster tucked within the details of this mural.
