Signs show Don Don Donki outlet opening at Downtown East
While boarded up stores are often sad indicators of closure, these signs at Downtown East tell a different story.
Telling visitors to “come hang out soon”, the Don Don Donki mascot Donpen invites everyone to keep an eye on the area.
And we all know what that means — a proper Don Don Donki store is finally coming to the East.
New store next to McDonald’s
According to Facebook user Ms Eng, the new store is located where the old food court was, right next to the McDonald’s outlet.
Judging from the video, the store looks set to be a rather large one, so we’re hoping that it’ll offer Don Don Donki’s popular range of fresh produce.
Of course, not forgetting their piping hot, Japanese sweet potatoes that are to die for.
