Sanrio might be celebrating the 40th anniversary of Hello Kitty this year, but come next summer, the Hello Kitty Cafe will open up to the delight of fans in Orange County, California. A dedicated space for people looking to hang out and munch on Hello Kitty-themed snacks, it is the first of its kind to take off.
The Hello Kitty Cafe has not limited itself to those in living or visiting California, however. A Hello Kitty Cafe truck will be making rounds along the East Coast as well. People will be able to spot the bright pink vehicle from a mile away. Chock full of takeaway treats and drinks, perhaps one of the favorite items will be the bow-shaped water bottle.
