Eleven restaurants, eleven pins to collect. Eat at them all to complete your quest. There's talk of pink cheese hamburgers to eat. It's a kaleidoscope of LA's food scene with Hello Kitty sundaes, sausage, pizza and cupcakes at some of LA's most well known treat and eat places. The best source so far is an LA Times article on the event.

This special Hello Kitty Convention will have the Hello Kitty Super Supermarket where you can buy exclusive merchandise.
