Three Japanese men work in a kitchen. Man in foreground stands with his back to the viewer as he washes white dishes at large grey sink. He is dressed in blue shirtsleeves, white apron and a white towel tied around his forehead. To his right is a stack of plates and a number of cups and saucers. In the background left, a man stands facing the viewer dressed as a waiter with white jacket, black tie, a towel over his right forearm and a plate and utensils in hand. On the right, with his back to the viewer, a man leans over a pot on the back left burner of a stove, stirrring the pot with a spoon. Above him is a ventilating hood. He wears a white shirt, blue pants, white apron and hat. The backdrop is a yellow wall.
