Let's face it, the waft of homemade Japanese curry is irresistible. But to this house cat, curry rice is pure ecstasy.

Japan is full of oddly themed eateries but Usagi to Cafe really is a bizarre, albeit adorable, venture. Almost everything in Usagi to Cafe is rabbit themed- from the wall decor to the rabbit-shaped curry...but the main attraction is live rabbits.  Eighteen "staff rabbits" are available for petting and cuddling before or after meals. Guests are even allowed to bring their own bunnies to "mingle" with the staff.  BYOB, guys! An ITN news feature video clip:

Usagi to Cafe's website also features a squeal-worthy photo and stats gallery of their staff bunnies. Check out this little guy here (his name is Melon!):

Next time you're in Japan, hop on over to Usagi to Cafe to enjoy a nice steaming plate of Japanese curry along with cuddly rabbit pals.

Check out this video in which Japan's renowned Natsuko "Gal" Sone puts away an absurd 9 kilograms of curry, rice, and udon noodles. She practically unhinges her jaw to devour it all in massive spoonfuls.

It's even crazier when you notice that Sone is such a small person. What the hell is wrong with her body, that the reflex we all have that tells us to stop eating is just shut off entirely?

Best part of the interplay between Sone and the hosts -- one of them asks what happens to the food, and she says, coquettishly talking around the subject, "It all... comes out the next day. You know... you know. Comes out. You know?"

"I... don't poop," says the host.

"Ah, you're an aidoru," she replies in between fistfuls of curry.
