ABSTRACT
Every years sector cafe business in indonesia spread all arounf the road,we can find cafe or resttaurand in very corner of the road in every distric or even in a vilage.
Bu when it comes to Japan, Akihabara is one place you’ll find on almost every tourist’s map. The name alone immediately brings to mind everything from games, manga, anime, figurines and AKB48 to Gundam, computers and electronics. Still one thing stands out as being particularly iconic: maid cafes.
Most visitors to Tokyo have stopped by one of these cafes at least once, and even if you haven’t, you’re probably familiar with the concept: cute, young women in fluffy “maid” skirts serving drinks and food while giggling with customers and, often, putting on shows. But have you wondered where these cafes came from?
Basic economics. A maid cafe is still a cafe, which means paying for cooks, ingredients, rent, and so on. Unfortunately, maid cafes have the additional cost of a larger staff, which really takes a giant bite out of your ice cream sandwich of profits (maids don’t work for free!). Typical strategies for dealing with the extra overhead include entrance fees, time limits, and photos with the maids. But why are people willing to pay so much for curry and rice?
In a word: moe.
you’ve definitely come across the word if you’re even passingly familiar with otaku culture. Yet, defining moe is nearly impossible. The author of the article says that the concept of moe can be compared to that of the classical Japanese idea of mono no aware, which is usually defined as “an awareness of impermanence that is inexpressible in words,” a frustratingly accurate, yet entirely unhelpful definition. It is this moe that has made maid cafes so special. Customers find themselves experiencing something utterly out of the ordinary, one hour at a time. From the moment they enter to greetings of “Welcome home, master!” to the nearly constant playful fawning of kawaii servers, patrons are immersed in a world light years away from their everyday lives.
Saveral distric such Bandung and Jakarta already apply this idea in their place but not in everywhere else.One more chance we can take here then !,Rigth?
