There’s a pink truck outside Westfield’s Garden State Plaza serving fun treats and merchandise but it isn’t your typical food truck… it’s the Hello Kitty Cafe Truck!
For the past 2 years, Sanrio’s popular character has had its own cafe on wheels travel the country: delivering cookies, macarons, petit fours, water, mugs, and t-shirts.
Not only is it a must for fans of Hello Kitty & all things pink, but also fans of the baked goods as well! I was surprised to discover that the macarons and petit fours not only photographed well but were quite tasty too.
Check out the whole menu below:
As short as the menu is, the line still moves along very slowly but if you make it, you’ll be able to choose from 6 fun items on their menu – plus a free tote bag with a food purchase over $25!
Make sure you arrive early! The later you are, the longer you’ll wait and the more likely things will sell out before you reach the front. It was a very diverse group of people lined up – from kids dressed head to toe in Hello Kitty to adults who thought Hello Kitty stopped being popular in 1992:
But once you reach the front, everything is displayed in their window and a little tent is set up next to it for the non-food merchandise.
When you’re finished, the truck is decorated on all sides… so whichever side is free, be sure to swing around to snap a selfie!
So don’t miss your chance! The Hello Kitty Cafe Truck’s next stop is this Saturday, September 9, at The Shops At Skyview Center in Flushing, NY from 10am-8pm (while supplies last)!
