📸 Retro Letters Everyone Loves: The “MOJIKO” Monument

At the entrance to the Mojiko Retro area stands the iconic “MOJIKO” monument, located in Chinzei Bridge Park. Its rounded, retro-style letters are inspired by mooring posts once used for ships. Keep an eye out as you explore—the area is also home to hidden heart-shaped motifs known as “Kanmon Hearts,” tucked into stone paths, walls, benches, and even within this park.

☕ A Korean Café Filled with “Cute,” Now Serving Lunch

This café’s bright white interior accented with vivid primary colors makes every corner picture-perfect. Since March 2023, gifff has also started serving lunch. One highlight is the mentaiko cream pasta, which transforms into a carbonara-style dish when mixed with egg—two delicious experiences in one plate. Small dogs are welcome inside, and the café’s beloved mascot dog, Bab, is always ready to greet guests.
