With the popularity of the Hello Kitty Cafe in Irvine, California, two treat trucks have been put into circulation to spread the joy nationwide. These two trucks run on a preplanned schedule and hit up major cities selling some prepackaged desserts such as macarons and cookies, as well as merchandise like mugs, plushies, and tote bags.
The Hello Kitty Cafe truck was in my hometown today, and thinking it would be no big deal, and just something quick to do, we headed off to get to the truck by its opening hours, 10am. If that’s your plan when the truck is in your hometown, change your plan. We were stunned by the amount of people that were already in line as we arrived. The line wrapped around the entire parking lot! The wait ended up being close to 5 hours! My advice to you, get there early, and bring foldable chairs!
