Kupuku is located in the Driekoningenstraat in Berchem and is most probably the cutest store in Antwerp. Silvia and her cat Momo are the proud owners of this gift store, where you can get all kind of different things you don't actually need, but once you see them you can't imagine your world without them. The goods in the store are all very colorful and made in the Japanese kawaii style. Everything is handmade, which makes the items a unique gift for friends and loved ones. Each one of the goods has its personal story and seems to come from a fantasy world, where the cat is the natural inhabitant, just like in the store. Momo feels very comfortable there and is in constant lookout for affection and cuddle sessions from the customers :-)
What I find especially nice about the store is that Silvia offers a three hour workshop in how to make your very own bento. Traditionally Japanese, a bento is a healthy lunch box made with love and cuteness to keep your stomach full and your spirit up (^_^)
