I often get asked what is your favorite place to visit and why. While I try hard not pick favorites, I always answer this question the same way, “Tokyo.”

This bunny had only one ear, but was my favorite

Tokyo never ceases to amaze me with its never ending array of wacky things to do. Pop culture in Japan is fascinating and I try to check out something new each chance I get to the city. Vélib’ rental bikes have become commonplace in Paris, but Tokyo has fuzzier options available by the hour. Pet rent cafes have been around for a few years, with cat cafes dominating the market. Unfortunately, I’m allergic to felines. I had heard rumors of Rent a Rabbit Cafes where you could pay for some quality one on one time with a bunny. Like anyone who has ever looked at the Instagram popular page, I’m not immune to adorable pictures of bunnies. I emailed my friend Shuhei and asked him to do a little pet cafe research since I can’t read Japanese.

Here’s what Shuhei wrote back: Rent-a-bunny cafe is Rabbit and Grow Fat (RA.A.G.F) in Harajuku.

Sign for Rabbit and Grow Fat in Harajuku. Yes, those are rabbit turds on the sign.
