The bowl came from the Bali Hai which was located at Pontchartrain Beach in New Orleans. There is a sticker on the bottom labeled Norleans, Japan. There was one at the antique store across from Dallas Love Field but they wanted $75 for it! It sat there for years I think I would have paid that price for it mostly for the sentimental value. That bowl is not the same as the Tepco. It is better cast and has bigger menon the edges, etc. Same style, but a different maker I think.
