A themed cafe with photogenic interiors and tasty food
By Samantha Francis
Singapore is finally getting her own Hello Kitty cafe in the form of Hello Kitty Orchid Garden and we're floored by how beautiful it is. First of all, we're pleased to report that the cafe isn't drenched in shades of pink or replete with kitschy Hello Kitty figurines at every turn.
Taking inspiration from Singapore's reputation as a blooming Garden City, the cafe features lush greenery and hanging rows of orchid flowers. The monochrome and colonial style interior comes with subtle and elegant touches of Kitty mania — bow imprints on wooden chairs, life sized kitties at dedicated photo corners and more.
To put it simply, this is a cafe we're proud to show visiting tourists — considering it's situated at Changi Airport.
4. An extensive retail corner
Even if plush toys aren’t to your liking, you’ll find plenty of memento at the cafe’s retail corner. Singapore-exclusive merchandise, such as custom Hello Kitty-inspired tea blends, grow-it-yourself plant kits, postcards and tea cups, will be launched in stages.
