It’s that time again.

The beloved Hello Kitty Cafe Truck plans to make a pit stop in Pentagon City on Saturday as it tours the United States, selling its usual sweets and whimsical feline merchandise.

The truck will park from 10 a.m.-7 p.m. at 1101 S. Joyce Street, in the courtyard next to DSW. It can only accept credit or debit card payment.

This year’s merch lineup includes tumblers, blankets and sweatshirts commemorating the truck’s 10-year anniversary, in addition to the usual macaron and madeleine cookies.
