Every geek has a dream of visiting the land of the rising sun, Japan, at least once in their life. Aside from the beautiful scenery and its rich culture, Japan also happens to be a geek heaven. This is the country where anime, manga, action figures, model kits and most video games came from.

Recently, Japan added another reason why geeks should visit their country, video game company, Capcom just opened a video game themed restaurant named, Capcom Cafe. The restaurant is based on Capcom’s rich history of games. The Capcom Café is located in Saitama’s AEON Lake Town Kaze shopping mall, which is near the borders of the Tokyo, Chiba and Saitama prefectures.

For its opening, the theme was based on one of Capcom’s famous games, Monster Hunter. Capcom merchandise and Monster Hunter inspired menu filled the café. This article wouldn’t do the café justice, so we’d let the pictures we’ve found online do the talking.

Among all these pictures, this particular photo grabbed our attention, we don’t know if this is Capcom Café’s best seller but it sure looks mouth-watery and tasty. Its what we imagined to be the ultimate “putok-batok”, a bacon wrapped crispy pata-like kind of meat. So good yet so bad, Japan we couldn’t wait to visit you!
