That's right! While the rest of the shop is closed, this part will and stays open forever! To get the stuff? All you need is to roleplay to get it.
For example:

"*Walks to Ice Pandora and opens the door* Hiii everyone!
*takes a seat and sits down* Can I have a strawberry boba tea with pink noodlebox without the plushies? Thanks! *leaves tips for the first waiter or waitress* :D"

Bad roleplay:

"Hi, can I have a milkpack?"

_ __________________________________________________________ _

Steps of ordering!

1. Post your order in roleplay style in this thread. Do not PM it!
2. After that, send a trade to Zhiyi + page number - also it would be very generous of you if you tip the waiter/waitress who's working on the order ^___^
3. A waiter or waitress will reply your order and quote it.
4. Be patients and recieve your order in the thread and save it.
5. Zhiyi will confirm the trade and so does the buyer.

Everything from Daily Stop cost:63,190G
All 267 items.

Staff informations

- Greet and interact with the customers!

Here you can find some answers about me, the secret of my art and more. Your question still not solved? You may post it in the thread :3

- Are you an Asian?
Yes, I’m 100% Chinese.

- Can you make pixel avatars?
I can but making 'food' pixels are my speciality.

- What program did you used to make these pixels?
I use MS Paint & Photoshop cs3. It took me very long to finish my pixels + I've read alot of tutorials.

- But, how can you make these pixel then with just only using Paint?
Carefully pixel by pixel. The basic I done it in Paint. Sometimes I re-color with Photoshop. For me it is important to know how to shade. And to use colors.

- Oooooh! So can you teach me how to make pixels then?
Yes! I've made a small tutorial! Please scroll down and you'll see it :3.
For more: http://ice-pandora.deviantart.com/gallery/#Tutorials

- You know that there are 100 pixel shops that sells food?
Well, I haven’t seen a shop that makes Swirls like mine ^^ but I must admit, there are many food pixel shops here in Gaiaonline.

- Can I use your work? Please *puppy eyes*
You can ONLY use it in Gaiaonline.com or in Deviantart.com. For any other purpose use please ask me for permission by contacting me. Thank you!

- I have post an order here in the thread, but got no response. How come?
Well, maybe you didn’t send me a trade? After you have post your order, always send a trade ^^

- Does the Free WindBells only counts for when you order in the Menu?
Only counts for the Menu.

- Can we put our usernames under the Daily Stop foodies? :3
Sure! No problem ^________^

- What's the point of the pixel food, when you can't even eat them!
You're actually buying art. Of course you can't eat them but alot of people in Gaia have a thing called 'Toybox' they put all the stuff they have bought in the Toybox ^^ you can see it as collecting things. Why don't you check my Toybox few posts below?
Also people buy things from Minishop to decorate their post, profile or signature!
You can only use my art in Gaiaonline.com or Deviantart.com

My crew.

I do give out salary!. Lol. It depends how I much I earn but I always give out above 1k (for the shop assistance and sushi maker). Waiters & waitress of Daily Stop recieve atleast 500G each (minimum wage). Plus, they can have free meals and foods from the Daily Stop.

And also I give out Christmas bonus, which means that in the month December they recieve 5000G from me.

I might give out vacancy since Ice Pandora is getting busier. So keep your eyes open ^^
