Hi. This is Tomomi from roji tea lounge. You may have noticed from last month, that now Sarah is helping you update as I’ll be at montage cafe & bar for a little while. Right now I’m working on 219 Takeover event coming up on Sat 17th right outside of Montage. More info below for a secret code.

Hello, this is Sarah from roji tea lounge.

Upcoming events at Roji:

News 2: New Current Art Exhibition: DECIBEL

DECIBEL, featured until the middle of November. DECIBEL is an independent clothing label and design company started in April 2011 in Syracuse, NY.

News3: Fan Photo Contest – till Sep 30th

We are running a Fan Photo contest on the roji facebook page till the end of September–the best photo taken at roji will win a $10 store credit!

News4: Maid Cafe @roji tea lounge – Sun, Oct 30th 3pm-11pm

roji tea lounge–in the spirit of halloween and akihabara– will transform into a Maid Cafe! What’s a Maid Cafe for those unfamiliar? Check out Wikipedia for more information! Our servers will wear maid (or butler) outfits, and while keeping the overall experience of roji the same, we hope to add special touches that will give roji the spirit of a cafe’s like Royal Milk Cafe or even Royal/T cafe in California! This will be our first time hosting a maid cafe and while there may be a few kinks we need to work out, we think it will be a fun experience so please be sure to come!
