It’s the Sanrio character’s first South-east Asian outlet in Singapore

Entrance

Don’t forget to take a photo at the iconic Pompompurin gate!

Move over, Hello Kitty and DC Comics. Here comes another utterly adorable theme cafe to throw us all into a frenzy.

Pompompurin — better known as the sunshine yellow, golden retriever dog character in Sanrio’s line up — will be the star of a new cafe opening on Apr 18 at Orchard Central.

Diners can expect 1,900sqf worth of Instagram-worthy (and hopefully equally delicious) food and beverages, character-themed merchandise and Japanese service, all enveloped in the charm of the Sanrio character.

According to the Managing Director of Create Restaurants Asia, Mr. Kawaguchi Kiyoshi, “Purin was ranked #1 in the Sanrio Character ranking in 2015, which is a testament of his popularity around the world.” Excuse us, but what happened to the mouthless cat?

Nonetheless, we can’t wait to gush over the cafe, which will feature the signature Pompompurin Gate as well as four 4-seater booths that replicate the “Tomodachi House” (translated as Friends House), each featuring one of Purin’s friends — Bagel the Squirrel, Coconut the Monkey, Mint the Frog and Macaroon the Golden Retriever.

Until Apr 18 rolls around, check out these 5 adorable items on the menu:
