Japan Akihabara

Akihabara is a district in central Tokyo that is famous for its many electronics shops the centre of Japan's ‘otaku’ (gamer nerd) culture, with many shops devoted to anime and manga. Here is where you find Maid cafes which are cosplay themed restaurants where guests are served by waitresses that are typically dressed as French maids. In addition to serving food arranged to look like cute bears, the maids engage in conversation and games with the customers and address them as 'Master'
