Japanese department store Muji reopens its new Orchard Rd store on Saturday, September 5.

The Japanese department store brand operates its Cafe&Meal dining concept in Japan, where it has 23, Chengdu, Taiwan and Hong Kong.

It will be adjacent to its store in the centre which will has been renovated to coincide with the 122 sqm eatery’s debut.

The Cafe&Meal concept is described as “minimalist chic” (much like a lot of Muji’ anti-brand product range) featuring simple natural wood furniture in a plain, modern backdrop fitout.

The menu will feature Japanese deli-style foods using locally-sourced ingredients, with a broad range of desserts.

Muji also has retail stores in VivoCity, Ion Orchard and Bugis Junction, but there is no word as yet on which of these stores will gain a Cafe&Meal.

Muji says the renovated Muji Paragon store will feature “exciting new services and product lines” as well as Singapore’s first Café&Meal.
