This is a remake of an old MOC, Jobasha's Odd Books and the Bistro Next Door.
About this creation
The old MOC can be found here: Link
That one was made two years ago, so I figured Jobasha could use a new bookstore, and the old Bistro especially looks kind of bland.

Jobasha the Cat is very happy about having his bookstore right next to one of the city's busiest food establishments. It brings in more customers and Jobasha gets to meet all varieties of interesting people.

Jobasha's Odd Books is specialized in accounts on the occult and old writings about unexplainable magic and so forth. Jobasha will have the answer to anything science can't explain.

Another enlightened customer leaves the shop

Close-up of the front of the building.

Even closer look at the Bistro's top floor.

And one of Jobasha's upper floors.

Strange plans are in motion on the rooftops.

Mindcorp would like to deny all involvement.

The loading door at the back of Jobasha's shop.

Homeless man is homeless.

Woohoo all the floors open up, let's have a look inside!

Jobasha's ground floor has a loading pit where his big door opens up to the back, some recently delivered boxes are still there, Jobasha hasn't had time to go through them yet.

If you have any questions that are bothering you, Jobasha's is the place to go: not only does Jobasha know a lot, his frequent customers are more than knowledgable as well. Aliencat, Mr. Hammersmith and Professor Neilsworth are discussing one of Jobasha's more recent finds.

This is Jobasha's little apartment above the bookstore. It's too small to fit a kitchen, so he usually eats next door.

The Bistro's kitchen is on the ground floor, customers don't normally come in here, the stairs in front lead to the first floor up.

Chef Micah is sampling some of his creations.

The first actual floor of the Bistro where guests can sit and eat has a tan tiled floor.

The second floor has a fancy blue wall.

And the top floor is an open terrace with some vines over it.

Jobasha still doesn't like rude waiters. Link
Thanks for viewing!

I am a fan of modular buildings and these are top of the class. |

Very nice! "Jobasha will have the answer to anything science can't explain." Then I take it Jobasha will have a treatise on the LEGO sorceries you conjure. I usually don't like focusing on any one thing in a MOC with so much to offer, but I find the red slanted roof quite fetching.

hi Aliencat, this is such a great MOC. I love the detailing on the outside walls. You managed to keep the dominant colors, without goint overboard with all the greebles. The interior is great as well. Overall very well done indeed. :) |

Hey thanks for the great comments everyone! :D
Quoting Chris Phipson
You know, I commented on this when you posted it but it wouldn't go through for some reason. I think the pages were slow... anyway, this is brilliant! I love all the little details in this! Simple superb! Oh, and on another note, I haven't heard from you in regards to the olympics. Just wanted to make sure you knew the matches are up and the games are going! Good luck! ~ Chris.
Ooh! Thanks for the heads-up, I completely missed that. Oop, only 4 days left, I'm gonna have to start building!

The details and aging effect on the walls and roof tiles is fantastic. My favorite parts are the roof tops and the furniture. Actually, perhaps the walls are my favorite. I simply don't know. A fascinating use of parts and techniques. Echt prachtig! |

Nicely done! While I'm mostly a space MOC guy, I realy dig the city stuff you do.
Someday, I may have to invest in the bricks needed to build MOCs like this. |

Does this creation and Jobasha's Rare Books (see link below) have anything to do with each other?

And may I say that this and all your creations are wonderful and bring joy to my life. :) |

Oh man this is cool. It's really interesting to see how you've reapproached an old MOC and how your style/skill has changed since. |

It's better to live near a bistro when you're homeless than in the city sewer system -- fresh air and better food!
Great work, A.C.! You always mix colors in unexpected, yet brilliant, ways. |

I pounced when I saw the email that there was a new MOC from Aliencat. I'm so glad. What a treat :-) Your technique is superb. No big, gray wall syndrome for you! The creative way you put texture and character into your walls throughout is totally admirable. And I *love* how you did the red clay tile roof section. Oh, yeah! I enjoy *and* learn from your MOCs. Thanks!! |
