for real though!
So this guy Tim discovered a DIY Genghis Khan-style restaurant in Japan called Kuro Hitsuji. They hung in the window an illustrated guide on how to cook and enjoy their food, where the English translations are basically Ebonics. Straight up.

So I was browsing greedily through this treasure trove of recipes on Orangette, when the chocolate-malted cupcakes caught my eye. While they aren’t exactly beauties–I haven’t made cupcakes from scratch since my sixth grade cooking class, and didn’t have any measuring utensils except the oz/cup markings on my blender–they truly are a gastronomical delight. The homemade frosting was basically a delectable cocoa butter spread. The ingredients themselves set me back about a million dollars, but now I have enough leftover baking supplies to last me a year. Hmm, I’d have to work on the presentation (no more soccer ball liners!), but a cupcake delivery service in the East Village perhaps?
And the aftermath–So buttery! So sugary!
