==========================

Today I’ll be showing what is going on at the café! ♪

Let’s start off with a look at the seating!

My table featured Umaru-chan’s outside version and Ebina-chan!

Two characters that definitely make my heart feel at ease! ♡₍₍ ◝(´´∞`｀*)◟ ⁾⁾♡
The tables feature various different combinations of characters, but you don’t get to choose… so you’ll have to see who you end up with!! Here are a few more examples!

– Order from the Menu –

I really don’t know what I should choose…! 

Everything on the menu relates to characters or things from the series which makes me want to try each and every one of them! I need to decide between picking the items based on my favorite characters… or picking the food I want to east the most! Not a very easy selection! _:(‘Θ’ 」 ∠):_

The menu features meals, desserts and drinks!

Here is a quick look at what is available for order! ☆

Once you’ve decided what you want, simply select them on the order sheet and hand it over to the nearest waiter! I decided to order the following!

· Pesky Umaru-chan’s Omelette Rice
· Ebina-chan’s Chazuke
· Motoba Sisters Ramen
· This is Paradise ~Umaru Banquet Set~
· Goes with Anything! God Cola
· Energy Drink for a Tired Onii-san 
· You’re My Rival! Sylphyn’s Yogurt & Blue Soda
· Hamster’s Cocoa Latte

… time for an Umaru-style Banquet!! (°Д°；≡°Д°；)！

By the way, this time I am not all alone! I have a friend to help me munch down all these goodies!

– Look Around the Café –

While waiting for your order to arrive, you can choose to sit and relax in the Umaru-chan atmosphere, but I would instead recommend getting up and taking a look around at all the things to see in the café! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

Taking a look at the setting photos along the walls will remind you of all the fun scenes from the series! 

Other areas are made to recreate places from the series!

△ Room 201…  inside the café?! 

△ Kirie-chan’s certificate of commendation?!

Plus various other things you might recognise from the series to look forward to!! There is also a note book that you can write down your messages about Umaru-chan or the café inside! Drawings are also welcome!

Be sure to leave behind a little message!! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

△ Writing tools are provided in the café!

– Time to Eat – 

Time flies when you’re having fun! My food arrived in no time at all! Σ(･ω･ﾉ)ﾉ！！

This is… truly a banquet!!

– Pesky Umaru-chan’s Omelette Rice –

The nori has writing on it!! 

It’s a little bit hard to see in the photo so I made a gif showing the text and little drawing! ☆ The creamy tomato sauce is delicious, and the meal also has broccoli and other veggies so you can imagine Onii-san shouting at you to have some vegetables!!

– Ebina-chan’s Chazuke –

A cold chazuke dish that is really soothing to eat. The amount of rice was just right and the chicken with sesame sauce makes for a very fulfilling meal! ★

– Motoba Sisters Ramen – 

The boiled eggs make up Kirie’s eyes and Bomber’s hairstyle is made-up from wakame seaweed! The amount of oil is just right making for a simple meal but your chopsticks won’t be able to stop! The pork is also absolutely delicious!! ♪

All items on the food menu come with a free clear bookmark! ★

– Goes with Anything! God Cola –

Cola with whipped cream on top! Cream Cola!

Nothing beats the fizzy feeling of cola in a Umaru-chan café!! ٩(๑òωó๑)۶

– Energy Drink for a Tired Onii-san –

The top even features a Taihei with glasses and ahoge! ★

It’s a very light tasting energy drink so it goes nicely with meals as well! I spent too long on the other items, so the cream melted a bit though…

– You’re My Rival! Sylphyn’s Yoghurt & Blue Soda –

It both tastes and looks so refreshing!! ♡

A cute little yogurt is also included on the side as a kind of mini-dessert! The drink itself also include yogurt jelly in it, so drinking through a straw makes for a rather interesting texture as well! (σ・∀・)σ

– Hamster’s Cocoa Latte –

The white stuff is all whipped cream!!

This is some luxurious cocoa!! (/ω＼)

And I haven’t even had dessert yet!

Whipped cream is such a wonderful thing…!

Each order from the drink menu includes a coaster! (・∀・)

The one I wanted most was Onii-san and I was lucky enough to get him! ★
I love the combination of suit and apron! 

– This is Paradise ~Umaru Banquet Set~ –

Pudding, ‘Take no Ko’ chocolate biscuits, potato chips, squid nibbles and cheese codfish! What a treat! (*´Д｀)=з

While enjoying all these together, I chatted with my companion about what it must be like to have a sibling… we were both only children!

The potato chips were Sour Cream and Onion flavour!

You can’t stop eating them once you start… *nom* (๑´ㅂ`๑) *nom*

My coincidence, I also got the Umaru-chan clear bookmark as my bonus with my dessert! ♡

– Other Goodies –

Various limited edition items exclusive to the café are on sale near the registers! (・∀・)

– Trading Smartphone Cleaners –

– Printed Marshmallows –

– Glass & Coaster Set  –

△ ¥2160 *Reads ‘COLA ONLY’, but can actually hold other drinks!

A selection of trading badges are also available as capsule products!

¥200 for one spin! I decided to give it a try and…

As the anime has gone on I’ve come to love Onii-chan more and more!

A quick photo together with Ebina-chan! ★

Delicious food surrounded by the world of Umaru-chan!
