So I originally drafted this a few months ago for Kansai Scene, an Osaka-based travel and culture mag, and it's finally made its way to print. It's a one-pager on "Maid Cafes" in Japan, aka, seedy establishments where the questionably young waitresses prance around in French maid outfits that are about three sizes too small for them. Creeped out or intrigued? Give the piece a read, either way.
