I was watching YouTube videos and Babish visited Noma Kyoto and his very first course was this crab leg covered in leaves.

it reminded me of one of my early posts with the mummy dog on leaves.

    Don’t worry, OP, you couldn’t afford Noma. You can stick to your MacD’s meals.

    I am not familiar with this restaurant, but I saw a YouTube video of a woman in Japan collecting yellow maple leaves and then curing them (I think in sugar?) to make something edible. If this is from the same region it could be a reference to this culinary aspect of maple leaves?

    Sorry for all the guesswork but that’s what I’ve got.
