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.

ALRIGHT TIME TO ROCK AND ROAD!!!
mmm rocky road!
@GovnahSkiddo:disqus how about arceus, keldeo,manaphy, and all of the shiny locked pokemon.
They are worth nothing!?!?
i mean since tey are shiny locked, the shinies forms instentlysay HACKED
some people actually “legit” hunt the shiny locked pokemon, by using a code to get rid of the shiny lock..
I got to try that 😀
I guess Shiny Saturday actually works!
it does i think XD on shiny staurday i got 2 shinies and the next week igot shiny mud kip.
not for me.. DX
I always seem to get mine on fridays lol
Heavy Fridays!
I think it’s mainly because we have more time to hunt (or at least I do)
GG! I lucked out at the end.
I like a challenge!
i swear if Xerenas is Shiny is that red one and Yvetal is orange i will be upset since i thought yvetal would look badass in blue
but red xerneas is AWESOME
I mean Yvetal should have been blue
i agree. I think zygarde is blue
I can imagine Yveltal being Gold and Xernias Purple…. just like Kyogre/Groudon
Shiny meloetta is amazing 😀
if you have one its definitely a hack… Just sayin’.
But either way… Its alright for me… I’ve seen better shinies
You would have seen better shinies.
i know its a hack 😉 Its my test to see pokebanks hacked pokemon checker
IMO shiny sceptile and metagross look the best
When pokebank comes, im gonna test to see if “”hacked pokemon” come through like shiny meloetta and shiny arceus
contrary snivy
sheer force totodile
v1.1 stops unreleased abilities from getting through. We were too slow 🙁
Apparently V1.1 of bank (a required update) killed all hacks and none can get through… But before so, pretty much any hack can get in. Someone transfered their Shiny Keldeo over to XY and now its mass spreading around serebii
Everyone is offering Shiny Keldeo over there and we all know that can’t be obtained shiny
🙁 I was gonna give my shiny pokemon away here
will the us pokebank has vr 1.1?
most likely… its probably why their taking so long to get it in our eshop… I feel like american’s are better hackers than the japs…
Yep ^__^ my dad has tought me the inside out of the 3ds. ME and him switch the motherboard of a japanese 3ds and english 3ds
whoa… perhaps you can maybe get bank this way
it was my friends japanese 3ds. He hates pokemon 🙁
GG! Couldn’t quite catch up.
damn clams
and banana placement.
I’ll do better next time!
EARTHEN IS YOU STILL HERE
yes
We should probably start talking about the League again.
if it this old u can kill me but RUmor has 1.2 will extend the trail the 21 of feb
the trial is feburary 21
GG Earthen. continue or battle?
I’m fired up!
Does anyone think contrary snivy will ever come out legitly
I pray all the HA starters get released..
See before V1.1 of Bank was required… someone managed to get this hack over http://i.imgur.com/4tz2Zbl.jpg
6 IV
Pokerus
Shiny
Jeez.
But I think it should have gotten Rock Head instead of Thick Fat.
Yep I wanted Rock Head or Reckless
Rock Head+ Head Smash
reckless is emobars HA
oh my geezus!! LOOOOL!!! I didn’t know this… God they really need to release it now.. or I need to find an illegal one for breeding lol
0_____0
that person traded over all the starters 6IV shiny with HA, including sheer force toto. So I hope they get breed and spread around, I really want a HA toto so bad
Probably.
It can’t even learn that many moves to help it except Leaf Storm.
Europe will get bank before US now…. friend talked to nintendo
and if I talked to nintendo can we get it tommorow? 😀
jk
oh, heavy, just curious if we should trade now or later on o:
ANyone here ever do a motherboard switch of a japanese 3ds and us 3ds
I think I might try Horde Encountering for a while, that’s worked twice for me before.
Y U GOLDEN MUSHROOMS!!!!
CUZ<I SUCK!
first horde shiny i bet i will mess up on
omfg the perfect counter to chansey …
on guard doublade. sacred sword all the time, no toxic, no seismic toss >:D adamant for the full attack

DAMN IT
😛
Pokegen being a widnows only application . i have mac :I
i need those HA pokemon
Good. Don’t be a cheater.
im not 🙂 i only got a shiny meloetta im gonna use to check hacking check in bank
NOT SO KEEN ON YOUR MAC NOW HUH.
In all seriousness, get Bootcamp. Best of both worlds. Also, don’t use those shady practices.
i wont use the shay practices Dae 😀
Hey, I’m using a Mac too ya know!
NICE ME TOO
Mac club 😀
We are an iMac-culate group.
yep, my whole family is apple. Me, my sister, mom and dad have an iPhone. Me and my sister both have macs 😀
Well, yeah, I don’t think Macs are bad, they just are way too expensive for the ‘quality’ you get. Also, I absolutely hate Mac OS. Windows/Linux just got things done way faster if you know what you’re doing.
Well I’m using a Mac Mini and an HP monitor, so it’s a little less expensive than the iMac. And I have never owned a Windows product, so the Mac OS has grown on me over the years.
Smart boy.
Mac OS is also faster if you know what you’re doing. It just depends on how much you know about them. :
Well, ofcourse you can work faster on a mac if you know a bit about it. But what I said is that I can get work done faster on windows than i could on mac.
i was thinking of getting boot camp
The rage!
Yeah i forgot to mention I have a INSANELY Bad Temper when playing Mario Kart and screwing up
MK7 is more chilled so I don’t get angry with it but with MKWii I snaped my disc and through my Wii at a wall because there was a hacker that took my 9825 VR back down to 5000
