Maybe some useful info for con-goers dressing in lolita or other fancy wear for fanime 2014:
Um so there's this really cute tea party place in downtown San Jose, not too far from the con called Satori Tea Company (http://www.yelp.com/biz/satori-tea-company-san-jose) and I've been there the decor is super pretty and they have great scones and SO MANY tea choices!

So if any lolitas wanted to get together and have a tea party, its a perfect place! It is kinda small, so I would maybe get a reservation if that is possible but they should be able to accommodate a medium sized group what with the outdoor space too. It is kinda hard to find? its by Peggy Sue's and the entrance is IN the parking lot??

I know this wouldn't work for the gathering but its just an idea for a place to have an elegant tea party like maybe after the gathering??. idk if I'm helping sorry.

JUST a reference for people who might want to know where to eat for this year's con here's some options i added

Aha, the benefit of fanimecon is that it is in Downtown San Jose so there's so many options for food!! I get food there all the time :)
Asian food:
Hydration has good udon and bento boxes, but for boba tea, I would go to either quicklys or thirstea
Fuji Sushi has pretty good sushi (its a little farther down)
Pho 69,  great pho (although their hours are kinda weird, they aren't always open the whole day)
Siam Fine Thai Cuisine: Really close to the con! really good curry
Mexican:
La Victoria's is good, its got great stuffed quesadillas
Also,Iguana's ,which is more famous for their burritos (both these places are pretty good value)
American:
Pizza My Heart (yay)
Johnny Rocket's, basically (also mcdonalds of course), and Peggy Sue's
Whispers, its has your basic american food and also crepes
Caribbean:
Back A Yard, its awesome!!! get the jerk chicken. but some of their stuff is spicy so make sure you get mild if you can't handle the heat :)
Tea:
Boba at thirstea and quicklys
Also theres a starbucks
REALLY CUTE tea place called Satori Tea Company, great for a lolita tea party! its kinda hard to find, its near peggy sue's like the entrance is in the parking lot yeah
Dessert!!!:
Cream! awesome new ice cream sandwich place would recommend (they also have great vegan and gluten free options)
Ben and Jerrys :)
Psycho Donuts
Yogurtland (great value)
theres also a really cute fancy french pastry shop really close to the con
ALSO, there a Safeway pretty close, good for getting cheap snacks and stuff for your hotel room
More expensive, Fancyish places/italian?:
Il Fornaio (i would recommend to not go in there in full cosplay haha)
Original Joe's, Blackbird Tavern, Mezcal
ALSO, there a cool place called San Pedro's Square Market they have a bunch of different foods and theres a bar too, cool atmosphere, sometimes there is live music. it is a little bit farther from the actual con (still downtown, not that far idk depends where you are) Its on N San Pedro St

In the Horror Category:

I have been reading "Corpse party blood covered" and its pretty interesting and a good classic horror. (Very long also)
There apparently are OVAs for Corpse Party I have not seen them but they look good
Also for manga one shots, the work of Junji Ito is pretty good.
For anime, I guess Mirai Nikki could be considered a horror anime? I really liked it.
