Maid cafe opens up in China where customers are spoon-fed their food by costumed schoolgirls (2)

The restaurant was opened by college graduates from the local university.

Pictures of the cafe as well as its waitresses quickly got popular on Chinese social media platforms such as WeChat.

However, the owner of the cafe told a reporter from Zhejiang Online that this was just a pop-up maid cafe.

She said these maid waitresses had been hired temporarily in order to attract student customers who like Japanese anime.

People have been talking about the story on social media site Weibo.
