Welcome back!

One of the many things people want to do in Japan is go to a cafe. Whether it is a animal or anime cafe almost everyone I know, including me, wants to go to one. Now I can say I have been to a cafe in Tokyo! This one, as the title suggests, is Kawaii Monster cafe. Haven't heard of it? Don't worry I didn't hear about it until my friend told me about it!

I recommend for those who can to check this cafe out! This cafe was both strange and amazing, and since I went this month there was special Christmas meals. The best way to discribe this cafe is a that it is cute and whimscal. It reminded me of Alice in Wonderland without the characters. Hopefully, my pictures will do some justice since I don't want to ruin the experience if you go!

These are some examples of things you may be able to get at the cafe! There are a few different options, but my friends and I decided to get some colorful dishes that you probably won't find anywhere else. All of them were delicious! On the left is one of thier milkshakes which costed under $10. Then, there is the ramen which is one of the limited time items, although I am sure they repeat it, and it costed about $12. Also, despite its colors it does taste like actual ramen. Finally, is a hamburger which I will call the "monster burger" since I cannot recall it's name.  My friend got this "monster burger", and as they reported it tasted like a hamburger! There was desserts but after drinking that milkshake I felt like I had enough sugar in my body for the day. 

This cafe is in Harajuku and it has a 500 yen fee and you can only be there for a limited time (might be an hour). However, that is plenty of time to go around the cafe and I think it is worth the cost especially if you want to try something new. If you want to learn more, check out the .

See you on the next adventure!
