Anime art and syrup have probably never even been used in the same sentence, but Saboten Store, a faux maid anime café, combines the two together to create some amazing and delicious artwork. I’ve read about this café through various Naver blogs and from there learned about their miraculous creations. With the purchase of any toast or cheesecake, you also get the chance to make an additional purchase for “시럽아트”, or “Syrup art”, in which the café staff draw whatever game or anime character you would like on your dish. My friend and I who went are both huge Pokémon fans, so we naturally decided on two of our favorite Pokémon; Mega Scizor (my friend) and Mega Ampharos (myself). And the outcome was…

…pretty amazing, if you ask me. I do love the toast addition to Scizor and Ampharos! We’re going to do a Pokémon scene next time; possibly Mew and Mewtwo on separate plates fighting. If there was such thing as a delicious nerdgasm, then that would be it.
Not only that, but the café itself was quite cozy and eclectic; just how I like them. It’s full of imported Japanese anime stuffs for purchase. They didn’t have much game merchandise aside from numerous “Persona 4: The Movie” collectibles and a few games.

The menu on the café was simple. It has all of the essentials; basic tea, a few coffee drinks, and a couple of desserts. The staff were super friendly and they all donned amazing maid outfits. One was gracious enough to let me take a picture with her!

If you ever happen to be in Seoul, definitely make your way to this café. It’s has a unique atmosphere packed with all sorts of video game and anime fans alike. To get there, take the metro to Sadang station and go out of exit 11. Walk forward for a few blocks and Saboten Store will be on the second floor of a business building to your right. It’s difficult to miss! The menu is only in Korean and the staff don’t speak a whole lot of English, so make sure to look up some key words / phrases for Cafés before you go. Here’s a list of phrases that you might need if you ever do make it to Saboten:
안녕하세요!
Annyonghasayo!
(hello)
(food/drink item here) 주세요.
______ ju-seh-yo.
(please give me _____)
What would you get on your plate? I can’t wait for my next visit! My buddy and I were also thinking of a “derp” theme featuring Dunsparce and Goomy. If we get a third friend with us, Stunfish would have to join in.
– Mr. Bojingles

Yeah
Ok!
bank should be out on the 27th since the trail does end feb 27 now
i thought it ends the 21
yea they extended it
that’s good speculation!! that means Monday! I hope so!
Which trial ends on the 27th? Japan?
for everyone who installs it
Well that’s basically confirmation then.
So in short they give Japan an extra few days for the free trial? Thats bull
DUDE WAT THE FACK HAPPENED TO JEWWARIO???
I think my friend just ruined vanillite for me
how
it got a little white poop on its head 🙁
lmao
that makes it funny 😀
Why Evan!???
Alright, I tipped 10,000. Time to head off to another Safari. Hopefully I make the lucky choice.
Hey xatu!!! Was it confirmed that tipping helps with shiny hunting???
According to two fellow Junglers it does. I just wanted to try it.
Ok if you ge perfect for the 10,000 tip do you always get to tip that much
yes
unless someone can mine the game’s data we won’t ever be able to tell. But there’s a good chance it toggles with the RNG rate a bit, like propels a shiny forward a bit… Coming from a personal experience I’ve always found shinies after tipping 10,000
Ok. So I am confused how Long do you get before having to tip another 10,000
we’ll never know… someone else here had thought that too, that if you tip maybe you get a certain time duration for a shiny to spawn that you have to hurry and encounter it or something. But me personally like if I’m MM’ing I tip 10,000 collect a bunch of eggs and then hatch them and find one
Who do you tip to get an increased chance of finding a shiny?
I go to Le Wow restaurant in Lumiose to tip 10,000. You have to complete a battle in so many turns or so then it unlocks tipping 10,000 at the restaurant
Le Nah is so much easier, it took me like 3 minutes with minimal effort.
True, but I have this hunch that for some reason maybe Le Wow might spawn them better. Cause you know how Shinies get a Star in their summary? Well their called Star restaurants and Le Wow is a 3 star. I know that probably describes how good their food is, but like I said coming from experience this restaurant always seems to work for me.
and there’s an NPC in front of Le Wow that says something “what is this blinding aura is this what three stars means?” so apparently 3 stars has some kind of hidden meaning more than how good the food is
Thank you. Does tipping help with hatching a shiny? I have been trying to hatch a shiny eevee for weeks with no luck.
does for me. shiny charm helps immensly too – I think that could be my main helper.
how do you get a shiny charm?
Ok thanks!!
what happened?
I dunno.
Who Disconnected
Not me.
not it
ill re send
I just had a vision. It’s in Kyle’s Bug safari.
Kyle has a Psychic Safari.
Not this Kyle.
You mean me?
Yes, you.
That’s correct. Who’s this other Kyle shinyxatu was talking about?
I was hoping for a first egg shiny… No luck.
probaly the egg u gave away
Definitely.
My friend is a Minecraft fan and asked me to make an Ender Dragon Gijinka… It turned out terrible.
