New Hello Kitty Mini Shabu Shabu Pop-Up Cafe In Singapore Has 10 Soup Bases, Over 50 Ingredients, Desserts & More

Just as we thought that Kumoya was at its peak with the butt-filled Crayon Shin-Chan cafe and ridiculously cute Sumikkogurashi cafe, they've one upped themselves with a new Hello Kitty-themed mini hotpot cafe with decor and food art that will bring back memories of your holidays in Japan.

Opening its doors on 1 September, the upcoming Hello Kitty Mini Shabu Shabu pop-up restaurant at Kumoya @ Orchard Central is a kawaii experience on steroids.

Lounging in the cafe, you'll be transported into a cute, Hello Kitty-fied Japan. Decorating the interior are colourful Japanese motifs from kimono prints and lanterns to Mount Fuji, with splashes of Hello Kitty faces. Look out for the localised touches like Hello Kitty hugging a baby Merlion!

Everything is Hello Kitty-themed from the shabu shabu pot to the rice and pink beetroot noodles.
