World-famous @home cafe (“at-home cafe”) will return to the United States for a special appearance at Saboten Con 2019 in Phoenix, Arizona.
@home cafe’s Chief Branding Officer Hitomi will represent the award-winning restaurant chain, which is Akihabara’s longest-running food and entertainment maid cafe. Hitomi will be accompanied by @home cafe’s Premium maids Chimu and Mizukin as they demonstrate authentic Japanese maid service and participate in several key events at the convention, including the fashion show, masquerade, and a live concert.
“I’m so excited to visit Phoenix for the first time,” Hitomi said. “The image of Arizona seems so sunny and bright, with cactus (“saboten”) everywhere… it will be a fun challenge to bring ‘moe’ to such an exciting place. @home cafe’s goal is to spread the authentic maid culture that was born in Japan to even more places worldwide, and we’re looking forward to meeting everyone and creating special memories!”
