The newly opened Omotesando branch of New York¡¯s Magnolia Bakery sells fresh cupcakes topped with a generous dollop of sweet buttercream frosting ¡ª a welcome reward after the long, long lines. The mini key lime cheesecake (?880), baked with a graham cracker crust, and the chain¡¯s popular banana pudding (?680 for 10 oz [285 g] and ?880 for 13 oz [370 g]) are worth a try too. ¡°What our employees don¡¯t know is that they¡¯ll end up gaining 10 pounds,¡± jokes owner Steven Abrams.
