Save Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 For the next two weeks Cure Maid Cafe in Akihabara will be serving up, get this Pine Cake Pineapple Salad Kakizaki Steak I've seen fans do the Pineapple Salad thing at gatherings, but an official Kakizaki last meal, that's just mean man mean. Full Menu Here. Quote
veffidas Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 (edited) I think the Cure Maid Cafe restricts web access to Japanese IPs only, so for those outside Japan, copy the link http://www.curemaid.jp/index.php?page_id=669 and paste it here: http://www.ijapan.org/red/ .

Final Vegeta Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Is it really a good idea? Weren't Japanese very superstitious? FV Quote
Beltane70 Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 I sure wouldn't eat any of those! It would be just my luck to actually meet my maker after eating any of those! Quote

It would be just my luck to actually meet my maker after eating any of those! EASY SOLUTION: Listen to Fire Bomber while eating the pineapple cake. You'll be fine, and all your friends will stand around marveling at how emotional it would've been if you'd died. Quote

Project Phoenix Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Gawrsh...I love pineapple AND steak...I bet I'll die of heart attack if I consume too much of the menu items... Quote
UN Spacy Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 What're the names of the other items? I think I recognize the nyan nyan tuna buns. What's the dessert with the VF-25 on it? Quote
SchizophrenicMC Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 What's the dessert with the VF-25 on it? *Cue extremely sarcastic and condescending voice that sounds like American Dad's Stan Smith* Hmm... It seems to be a cheesecake! Quote
Keith Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Can't get either link to work. Any chance of someone saving & re-uploading the images for all to see? Quote
JB0 Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Kakizaki Steak: Can only be ordered 5 minutes before closing. Seriously, Kakizaki never got to EAT his steak. That's the greatest tragedy. As I recall, he was about to take his first bite when the alarm sounded. Quote
aerocombatpilot Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 I sure wouldn't eat any of those! It would be just my luck to actually meet my maker after eating any of those! Just don't fly a Valk after eating!! Quote
veffidas Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 What're the names of the other items? I think I recognize the nyan nyan tuna buns. What's the dessert with the VF-25 on it? It's actually named the familiar "My Boyfriend Is a Pilot." Can't get either link to work. Any chance of someone saving & re-uploading the images for all to see? The site seems to be working globally again, since Save did include pictures of the items he listed (directly from the website) in his post, and I can see them now as well as the full website. Quote
VFTF1 Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Man..that steak looks reaaalllyyy good...I could use some steak This is a fantastic idea Pete Quote
Roy Focker Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 That food is all wrong. Japanese nearly always funk up Western food. They make things for Japanese sense of taste. This results in them having some pretty funky menu changes to the classics. Go look at famous fast food joint Japanese pages. Hot dogs topped with corn, mayo and lettuce. That sorta of crazy crap. They're just as bad as we are when we pour ketchup over anything different. So at this cafe the waitress all dress in made uniforms? What is wrong with the Hooter's gimmick? This is how the salad is suppose to look like. pinesalad.bmp Quote

Mercurial Morpheus Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 The Kakizaki steak is awesome. I've always wanted to simulate that. Quote

SchizophrenicMC Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Who wants to know the true secret ingredients of my lemonade and Honey Crash jelly? Lemme guess! The lemonade is actually pineapple juice and Honey Crash Jelly is... Well, I don't know, but it sounds like the glaze on a Pine Cake! Quote
Gubaba Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Linn Minmei - Blueberry Ice Cafe (coffee?) x Calpis I realize they're trying to simulate the characters' various ahir colors (except for the Nekki Basara, which sounds disgusting but oddly appropriate), but shouldn't the Lynn Minmay just be Irish Coffee? Quote

Didn't she sing about Turkish coffee? Pete Quote
Gubaba Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 (edited) Didn't she sing about Turkish coffee? Pete She SINGS about Turkish coffee, but she DRINKS Irish. And according to "Miss DJ," the ultimate Minmay menu would be Irish coffee, carrot cake, and pig's feet. Yummy, huh? Edited February 10, 2009 by Gubaba Quote
sharky Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Those would be "Xiaolongbao." It's actually written using Chinese, as described in the Wikipedia link ("Traditional Chinese"): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiaolongbao Mmmmm...those are one of my favorites. Quote

And according to "Miss DJ," the ultimate Minmay menu would be Irish coffee, carrot cake, and pig's feet. Yummy, huh? Before you guys get bent out of shape about which coffee Minmay drinks, "ice cafe" is actually pretty much just milk and flavored chunks of ice (which is actually what the drink looks like): http://www.chu-rei.co.jp/icecafe.html. Search for "氷カフェ" in Google and you'll get a bunch of the same. Quote

VFTF1 Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 She SINGS about Turkish coffee, but she DRINKS Irish. happy.gif Typical celebrity hypocrite! But seriously - Turkish coffee is SO MUCH BETTER than Irish coffee. In fact, I haven't the faintest clue what Irish coffee is supposed to entail really. Turkish coffee, on the other hand, is the best. Second best is Greek. What does Irish consist of? Cream? Mints? Pete Quote

bigkid24 Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 I want the coasters that they talk about in the fine print. Quote

Pete I think Irish coffee is any kind of coffee with liquor in it. Quote
veffidas Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 I want the coasters that they talk about in the fine print. I think that might be how Save found out about this, since I noticed a few of them on auction at Yahoo! Japan and inquired him for more info. I ended up doing some hunting on my own and there seem to be nine coasters in total, three from three different stores. You can probably contact Save about acquiring them, but it'd seem difficult and expensive to get them all. Quote
Killer Robot Posted February 11, 2009 Posted February 11, 2009 I think Irish coffee is any kind of coffee with liquor in it. Irish coffee is coffee with Irish whiskey specifically, and a thick layer of cream floated on the top rather than mixed in. You can also just add Irish cream to coffee, which isn't exactly the same since it mixes things differently, but it's easier to make. As for comparisons with Turkish coffee, which is better depends partly on how many you've had. Quote
