The two biggest RPG names in Japan are finally in the same room

Okay, this one made me do a double-take. Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy — two franchises that have been trading "best JRPG in Japan" thrones for four decades — are officially crossing over at a cafe. The collab restaurant, cheekily named "Slachoco Kitchen" (Slime + Chocobo, if you can guess), opens November 11, 2026 through January 11, 2027 at Cafe Fan Base on the 5th floor of Yokohama Landmark Plaza in Minato Mirai.

It's part of a bigger winter holiday event, so expect Slime and Chocobo holiday trees, a pop-up store, and a stamp rally — not just food.

The menu is a 40th-anniversary love letter

The star of the 13-item permanent menu is the "DQ×FF 40th Anniversary Plate" (¥6,600), which serves motifs from both games on a single dish. Other highlights:

  • Mogre's White Omurice — FF's chef, going full omurice
  • Slime & Chocobo Marshmallow Hot Drinks (¥1,100 each)
  • Potion-style drinks, a Phoenix "Rebirth Flame" orange soda, and a sparkling "Crystal" drink
  • 40th-anniversary mini cakes — strawberry for DQ, rare cheesecake for FF

Menus rotate: the first phase (Nov 11 – Dec 11) adds Momonja stew, Ghost Candle roll cake, spicy Bomb curry, and "Meteor" ice. A second phase drops in December — details coming later.

The fine print

Pre-bookings for the first phase opened October 15 at 6 PM (¥550). Dine-ins get a clear file, and every order comes with a random coaster — 7 designs to chase.

Honestly, if you love JRPGs this is the kind of crossover that feels like it should've happened ten years ago. Slime meets Chocobo, and for once the "which is better" argument just... sits down and orders dessert together. 🍰
