Krispy Kreme in Shinjuku


Krispy Kreme in Shinjuku

They opened up the very first Krispy Kreme dougnut store in Japan. Despite the cold weather, there was a long queue in front of the store in Shinjuku regulated by Krispy Kreme's security staff...

I guess this doesn't surprise me too much though. They opened up the first store in Northwest a few years ago in Issaquah, WA when I was in still in college and people spent over 1 hour waiting to get inside the store. Considering Japanese people's tendency to line up when they hear about newly opened stores and also the fact it's located in Shinjuku I wouldn't be surprised if the line was much longer.. I don't think I'll be going there anytime soon though.
