I love this show! It's funny (partly because of Imada-san and the Kiwi & Banana sedai guests) and it's informative & definitely entertaining. Plus point, Yamapi is getting better at hosting. He's still nowhere, decades away from Imada-san level off course, but compare to the first few episodes? Definitely way better XD. And particularly about this episode, it's my fave subject, sweets! Deserts! And we all know that Japan is a desert heaven hehe...

vlcsnap-00634
You can easily mistaken if the huge caption there is not about eating... XD

vlcsnap-00636vlcsnap-00637
Yamapi: I'm going to eat you tonight <3 (complete with the glitters LOL)
Fangirls: KYAAAA
LOL at Imada there, he always manage to crush the fangirls' image LOL

vlcsnap-00639vlcsnap-00638
Testosterone is all in the air... but it's about EATING SWEETS! OOOO!!!

vlcsnap-00640
I like Matobe Koji being in this show (yeah, this show makes me search for his name, he's everywhere in the drama but not to make you recognize his real name though haha). His comments are always hilarious despite his face and with passion (look back at the tokusatsu episode where it's basically about him and Imada reminiscing their childhood LOL). In here, he's suggesting to EXILE's *dunno his name but he's funny too* that a fighting man definitely needs his sweets LOL!!! with that kinds of serious tone LOL...

So, let's starts with the latest desserts trend (mango sedai's desserts)!

vlcsnap-00641vlcsnap-00642
On #10, it's FRENCH TOAST!
We have cafe de la ville at Shibuya with the french toast that I doubt I'll see at the same thing in Paris.

vlcsnap-00643vlcsnap-00645
The first feature is a bagel french toast from Nanjamonja Cafe at Yokoyama. If bagel's calories is not high enough for you, you can have it soaked with eggs mixture, pan fried, showered with honey and top with ice cream... yummm... and ohh my arteries...

vlcsnap-00646vlcsnap-00647
Not feeling it yet? Let's move on to Adito at Setagaya. This one is CASTELLA soaked with eggs mixture, covered with bread crumbs (like tonkatsu) and deep fried, yey!!! I can feel my arteries are closing up LOL...

vlcsnap-00650vlcsnap-00651
Do you want to eat this? YES!

vlcsnap-00652
At #9, It's Sweets Marathon, burn your calories while gaining more along the way! That's the trendy thing now.
It's a 10 km run and the next event is at 9th March, anybody interested?

vlcsnap-00654vlcsnap-00655
Look at the spread! Unbelievable!

vlcsnap-00656vlcsnap-00657
They even have the traditional sweets and baumkuchen!

vlcsnap-00659
Goodness! Make sure you don't get appendicitis for eating while running, though!

vlcsnap-00660vlcsnap-00661
The next in thing in Tokyo, at #8, Macaroon? Not anymore, it's dorayaki posing as macaroon!

vlcsnap-00662vlcsnap-00663
The traditional sweets are having upgrades! You can feel that the era is changing ne!

vlcsnap-00664vlcsnap-00665
For example, this shop, Monblanc, is selling chesnut chocolate youkan. Basically they combine the red bean paste and chocolate. I want to try this!

vlcsnap-00666vlcsnap-00667
Now we should try eating our daifuku with EVOO!

vlcsnap-00668
No resistance, instead we have raving reviews!

vlcsnap-00669vlcsnap-00670
Hello Junpei-kun! He's here because of Shitsuren Chocolatier, isn't this too much of coincidence? haahaha... but anyway, it's rare to see him on variety show XD

vlcsnap-00671
Junpei-kun thinks that the EVOO gives the 'fruity' feels on the daifuku... he's really into his role ne hehehe...

And now we're hoping into time machine to see what sweets does banana sedai (our grandpa/parents) were having...

vlcsnap-00672vlcsnap-00673
We have strawberry shortcake, at that time, using fresh cream was refreshing as before that there's only butter cream cake.
Next is Mon Blanc.

vlcsnap-00674vlcsnap-00675
Then we have cheese cake and the rare cheese cake.

vlcsnap-00676
And then the baumkuchen.

vlcsnap-00678
Memorable moment from our banana sedai XD

vlcsnap-00679vlcsnap-00680
Again, can't remember his name, but he's guested at Shiyagare with the hilarious samurai skit XD.
Basically as he had samurai roles, when you're in pain, you'd want to have sweet stuffs.


vlcsnap-00682vlcsnap-00683
So, during shooting, they'd stop for 'sweets time', that's after our guest killed 30-40 people XD. (please correct me if i'm wrong).

vlcsnap-00688vlcsnap-00689
For Kuwata Keisuke, his birthday is on the day whereby sweets shops are closed and that time there're no kombini yet. Hence he'd never had cake during his birthday (according to wiki, his b'day is in Feb, so I dunno... weird)

vlcsnap-00690vlcsnap-00691
So, when's the first time he ate his birthday cake? It's during concert with people who he didn't know and that time he cried buckets. Ah, that's memorable...

Moving back to our mango sedai Top 10...

vlcsnap-00693vlcsnap-00694
If French Toast is not enough to block your arteries, let's have croissant donuts. It's popularized in NYC where people queue like snakes for this freaking fattening stuffs, no doubt it's good... but look at the frying the croissant.... I feel my arteries got clogged.

vlcsnap-00695
And Japan just up the level of Cronuts. They just divide it by half (2 piece of deep fry stuff), add filling, top w/ chocolate, and the calories just up by another 500Cal. LOL!

vlcsnap-00696vlcsnap-00697
The queue is equally long at the Shibuya store and they can easily sold out...

vlcsnap-00698
Do you want to eat this??? Look at the eyes LOL...

vlcsnap-00699vlcsnap-00702
At #6, Juneebaren (it's from German, but I couldn't find the real spelling at Google, so we'll leave it at Juneebaren).
It's from German but the Korean (this time, not the Japanese) upgrade it with 11 flavors.

vlcsnap-00703vlcsnap-00704
How to eat the damn thing? Break it with hammer. It's a perfect stress relief for housewives too XD

vlcsnap-00705vlcsnap-00706
The freaking hammer is expensive! And whose hand is that?

vlcsnap-00707vlcsnap-00708
Why off course! XD and Yamapi break it NOT EVENLY. haha

vlcsnap-00709vlcsnap-00710
Ouww, Yamapi has the milk mustache there... off course... kawaiiiii...

vlcsnap-00712vlcsnap-00713
Imada... not wanting to lose LOL!!! Ojisan-tachi, please don't follow Imada-san's example, it's kimochiwarui LOL...

vlcsnap-00714vlcsnap-00715
Junpei-kun love this too saying it has a good balance :)

We have Banana sedai's list and not we have the Kiwi sedai's:

vlcsnap-00716vlcsnap-00717
We have mille feuille, Tiramisu

vlcsnap-00718vlcsnap-00719
Marugoto banana (it's the start of kombini sweets). It has the whole banana inside it. Think I have this before... YUMMY!

vlcsnap-00720vlcsnap-00721
Matobe taught the studio hot to cut mille feuille nicely... by topple it first then start cutting, then the custard won't splatter out haha...

vlcsnap-00723vlcsnap-00724
And Matobe reminds again that you need to topple it first before you cut LOL!

vlcsnap-00725vlcsnap-00726
According to Yamapi Marugoto banana is fattening because it has banana, fresh cream.... errr... so the bagel french toast and castella french toast are not fattening? *gasp*

vlcsnap-00727
And Junpei-kun had marugoto banana for his birthday cake when he's a kid hehe...

vlcsnap-00729vlcsnap-00730
Takeuchi Riki's first encounter of crepes is just <3. It's during his first time in Tokyo, at Harajuku, he smelt something good and the good stuff coming from the PINK shop LOL! So, it's a hard decision on whether to defeat the fear of embarrassment or trying the 'rumored crepes'

vlcsnap-00734vlcsnap-00735
So in 2014 we just switch everything with croissant skin LOL... we have croissant taiyaki! fat level has an instant upgrade!

vlcsnap-00737vlcsnap-00738
In contrast to the rest, #4 is very healthy! Coming from Hawai, it's Acai bowl. It's basically Acai fruit smoothies top by banana, granola, and berries.

vlcsnap-00741
It looks really good up close... yummm...

vlcsnap-00742vlcsnap-00743
Junpei-kun is eyeing for this one!

vlcsnap-00745vlcsnap-00744
Yamapi: 2nd half eating time!
The rest: OOOO!!!

vlcsnap-00746
LOL... basically he gulped the smoothies without realizing that it's cold hehehe...

vlcsnap-00747vlcsnap-00748
Junpei-kun is savoring every bite hahaha...

vlcsnap-00749
Off course, we have to have Yamapi eating too LOL...

vlcsnap-00750vlcsnap-00751
How cute can you be???

vlcsnap-00752vlcsnap-00753
<3
In this episode, lots of comments are relating the desserts that it can attract people during the olympic... and I bet 7 years later, there will be totally different sweets in Tokyo...

Back to Kiwi sedai's dessert list, we have:
vlcsnap-00755vlcsnap-00756
Mille Crepe, which is super yummy!!!

vlcsnap-00757vlcsnap-00758
The fuwa fuwa... yummm

vlcsnap-00759vlcsnap-00760
We have belgian waffle next. They even use castella mix to make the waffle.

vlcsnap-00761
So Manneken craze started from Kiwi era ne... I want to eat this again... this waffle is really fuwa fuwa... yummmm....

vlcsnap-00762
#1 of Kiwi list is Pastel Nameru purin... it's the fuwa fuwa type purin. I actually like the classic purin better than this one though...

vlcsnap-00764vlcsnap-00765
This guy practically store Pastel in his fridge because no way he'll only eat just 1. Once start, he cannot stop with just 1 LOL
Matoba: Pastel is purin's revolution... hahaha

vlcsnap-00766vlcsnap-00767
See? He's really passionate talking about his desserts. With Mille crepe, he like to use the fork to take the crepe layer 1 by 1 and eat them XD

vlcsnap-00768vlcsnap-00769
And Imada likes the feel when you cut the mile crepe LOL, Imada-san I totally get what you mean hahaha... it's special!

vlcsnap-00771vlcsnap-00772
Coming at #3, it's pancake!
Cafe Kaila from Omotesandou is featured, look at the queue, it doesn't end there!!! The queue continue outside like snakes... scary!

vlcsnap-00774vlcsnap-00776
we have L.Loves.R at Shibuya. We have Dutch Baby, which is basically an onsen of BUTTER is melted and added on pancake mix and thrown to oven, once cooked, dusted by icing sugar...


vlcsnap-00778vlcsnap-00779
Next is the Melon pancake, which literally have melon inside it... looks yummy!!!!

vlcsnap-00780vlcsnap-00781
Now we have Moke's Bed&Breakfast at Nakameguro. The popular menu is...

vlcsnap-00782vlcsnap-00783
Lilikoi (something like passion fruits) pancake... it looks so fuwa fuwa...

vlcsnap-00784vlcsnap-00785
Do you want to eat? PLEASE!

vlcsnap-00786vlcsnap-00787
Japan is sure late... Max Brenner is finally in town, but does the menu the same as the origin country?
The queue to Max Brenner is 3.5 hours... goodness...

vlcsnap-00789
Hmmm... not really the same LOL... see... WHY??? WHY Japan has to be different?
The Aussie take out the crepe Suzette menu and leave only the banana crepe :(

vlcsnap-00790vlcsnap-00791
We have chocolate chunk pizza! The Cao!

vlcsnap-00792
And ... Chocolate syringe, not that I'll get this, but the fact that such thing exists...

vlcsnap-00793vlcsnap-00795
This is how you use it...

vlcsnap-00797vlcsnap-00798
Give me Chocolate!! LOL

vlcsnap-00799
Off course #1 is chocolate... Valentine's day is just days away...
But instead the rabu rabu choco, now tomo choco and obligatory choco is more important!

vlcsnap-00801vlcsnap-00802
For your bff :)

vlcsnap-00803vlcsnap-00804
For your #1 bff!

vlcsnap-00805vlcsnap-00806
And guys are also buying chocolates now... for themselves...

vlcsnap-00807vlcsnap-00808
And off course, the market are quick to catch up on the demand!

vlcsnap-00810vlcsnap-00809
Ad even have the Jurassic chocolate!

vlcsnap-00811

vlcsnap-00812vlcsnap-00814
While mango sedai guys don't have the qualms in buying chocolate, the kiwis still have the reservation, while the bananas don't even know such thing exists hahaha...

vlcsnap-00815vlcsnap-00816
Yamapi is already holding the syringe before the CM haha...

vlcsnap-00817
Yamapi felt that it's too sweet, but off course, it's milk chocolate yo! If they have the option for dark chocolate, it'll be yummy!

vlcsnap-00818vlcsnap-00819
Drama promotion time! It's a must watch drama for Winter 2014! Beautiful drama with beautiful people, beautiful chocolates!

vlcsnap-00820vlcsnap-00822
LOL!!!

vlcsnap-00823vlcsnap-00824
Banana & Kiwi are raving about the pancakes...

vlcsnap-00825
When the show's ending: We've eaten a lot ne... Look at the announcer lady, she's LOL-ing...

vlcsnap-00826vlcsnap-00827
Banana: We thought sweets from our own era is good, but now... it's as if my era has ended...
time passed and the trend changes/evolves...

vlcsnap-00829vlcsnap-00831
Yamapi commented that the unexpected are Takeuchi & Matoba combi, having scary face but surprisingly yasashii...

vlcsnap-00832
