A new development in an old themed trend takes Tokyo by storm.
Themed cafes are a very popular way to do business in Japan. With so many competitors, especially in the bigger cities, one has to be able to set themselves apart from the pack and encourage people to eat at their establishment instead of somewhere else.
Maid cafes are one way that people have been doing this for years. The waitresses all dress up in maid costumes and present food to the customers with an air of respect and submission. A newer development, however, has men dressing up in the maid outfits instead of women, and it’s become pretty popular in a relatively short period of time.
