The popular San-X character Rilakkuma was first launched in 2003, and to commemorate his 20th anniversary a special pop-up café event is being held in Tokyo.
The Rilakkuma 20th Anniversary Café will include a variety of themed eats on offer, including a Rilakkuma honey mustard hamburger steak plate, a Korilakkuma cream pasta, a Kiiroitori egg burger, or a Chai Roikoguma cheese curry (all priced at ¥1,870 including tax).
The drinks and desserts are also themed, with cakes, parfaits, sodas, and floats available to choose from.
If you'd like a tangible souvenir from your café experience, they've got you covered there, too – a variety of limited time merchandise including tote bags, plush toys, and keychains are up for grabs.
Advance reservations for the café can be made on the official event website.
Getting there
Omotesando BOX cafe & space is located around five minutes on foot from Tokyo Metro's Meijijingumae Station or Omotesando Station.
