I've just finished watching Midnight Diner on Netflix. You won't like it if reading subtitles bothers you, but if you enjoy heartfelt stories wth an emotional payoff about how someone can really love curry ramen or cream stew, this one might float your boat.
The story started out as manga before it was televised and it's about a mysterious chef known only as the Master who runs an izakaya in a tiny alleyway in Tokyo's Shinjuku district that is open from midnight to seven am. Recurring characters make this one more fun than Cheers. I'm only sorry there aren't any more episodes for me to watch.
I love that show, KB!
