It seems like everybody and their brother is releasing some kind of promotional app these days. Most of them never really take off, but a noodle chain called Marugame has an app called Marugame’s Photo Shop where they say you can “decorate your photos with tempura”, though why you would want to do so is a little unclear. However, true to Japanese form, it’s turning into quite a hit on Twitter because it is so very bizarre.
The application, which is available on both iPhone and Android-powered devices, allows you to add the crispy and delicious Japanese dish to your photos. From shrimp to vegetable fritters, all your favorite tempura can be put to artistic use.
Marugame actually released the app at the end of last year, but in the mysterious ways of the Internet, it has suddenly started springing up all over Twitter.
If you’ve got some avant-garde ideas about where tempura should turn up other than on a bowl of noodles, give it a shot.
