In the realm of slice-of-life anime, there is a small subset of foodie series. We’re talking your Cooking Papa, Oishinbo, and Wakako-zake, among many more. But, in recent years, foodie anime have slowly entered other genres as well. Take, for instance, Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Sōma. While the series certainly revolves around food, it is far closer to an action series. And now the 2024 series Delicious in Dungeon takes foodie series to the realm of fantasy by making dishes out of monsters that lurk in dungeons. But what would the food from Delicious in Dungeon look like in real-life? Well, the Shibuya Delicious in Dungeon Shop in Tokyo will give us exactly that.

It’s an admission-free exhibition event 👀
A limited number of visitor gifts are also available each day 🍜Please come see us next week in Shibuya #ダンジョン飯 ✨
Announced on January 9 on X (formerly Twitter), the two-story Shibuya Delicious in Dungeon Shop will feature (roughly translated), “Samples of monster food and other items from the story” on the first floor, and the second will showcase an introduction to the story as well as a life-sized statue of one of the series main characters, Laios. It should be noted, though, the shop will not actually serve any food, but rather showcase replicas of the food from the series. So, we’ll likely see the soup and tart from the first episode, along with other dishes that will appear later in the series.
While it’s unfortunate we can’t sample most of the food, the staff will give away a limited number of Original Dragon Broth Ramen packs to visitors. The staff describes the ramen broth as being taken from the marrow of a red dragon, but tastes of pork broth and soy sauce. This may seem a bit underwhelming at first, but that’s the fantasy of it all. The Delicious in Dungeon homepage includes an allergy warning of soba and eggs.
