In Like a Dragon Gaiden, the Akame Network's request system serves as a gateway to a diverse range of side missions and substories. These not only enhance the gameplay experience and yield valuable rewards, but also cater to Joryu's penchant for altruism. Players can spot these requests throughout the areas of Sotenbori and The Castle, marked by white exclamation points on the game's map.

Several of these requests are part of a chain, where new tasks become available only after completing previous ones. A prime example is the "Find the Cute Cafe" request. This mission, initiated by the Puzzle-Solving Girl at Shot Bar Stijl, challenges Joryu with a somewhat enigmatic photography assignment. This guide provides players with detailed steps to both obtain and successfully complete the "Find the Cute Cafe" request in Like a Dragon Gaiden.

The mission "Find the Cute Cafe" begins inside Shot Bar Stijl, situated at the western end of Sotenbori St., near Bishamon Bridge. There, Joryu meets the Puzzle-Solving Girl, who previously offered the photography missions: “Find the Flying Takoyaki!” and “Find the Terrifying Beings!”. Once these requests have been completed, her third and final request, unlocked in Chapter 3 of Like a Dragon Gaiden, is to simply photograph a quaint cafe she spotted in S Shofukucho.

This particular cafe, notable for its white tables and chairs out front, stands out from the usual Sotenbori storefronts, which are more likely to feature just signage, bikes, or other elements often ending up as improvised weapons in a scuffle with an unlucky thug. The girl's hint about the cafe's location is vague, making it easy to overlook on S Shofukucho Road.

Interestingly, the cafe's location is one Joryu is already familiar with, though he might not immediately realize this. Situated directly across from Akame's Hideout, this charming cafe is a spot players likely have strolled by countless times. Outside of this request, the cafe doesn't have any specific significance in the game as it unfortunately does not serve as a functioning restaurant where Joryu can grab a cuppa.
