TGS Side Quest: A Delicious Trip To The Pokémon Cafe
Through the years we've visited many different video game-themed restaurants. From one devoted specifically to Dragon Quest to another that encompassed all the Capcom properties, these are always a must-stop when we visit Japan for Tokyo Game Show. This year, we picked a new spot: The Pokémon Cafe located near Tokyo Station. Nintendo clearly loves its flagship franchise, putting a lot of care and love into everything it produces. This cafe is no exception. After tasting some of the items off the menu, we came away more than impressed by the best food we've encountered in a themed restaurant.
To get an idea of our venture, check out the gallery above to see all the highlights, including eating Pikachu curry and drinking a Gengar-inspired smoothie. We also included some pics we snapped from The Pokémon Center's store.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
