I'm two weeks late in getting these up, but have finally figured out the intricacies of Flickr Uploader, and have a whole photo set from our last NYC Meetup, which involved two cupcake places: Out of the Kitchen and Jacques Torres Chocolate. Please join us for our next NYC Meetup when we head to Brooklyn to Bay Ridge, Brooklyn on Saturday, February 16 at 2 p.m. to try out Little Cupcake Bakeshop. If you were there, let us know what you thought about the cupcakes in the comments or by email.
They only offered four kinds of cupcakes at Out of the Kitchen: vanilla or chocolate frosting, with vanilla or chocolate cake, pictured below.
This in itself was a bit disappointing, as I was expecting more flavors. As for the cupcakes themselves, I don't think many people were too bowled over with them. The cake was pretty dry, but the frosting was quite thick and gooey; I thought the chocolate one tasting like thick chocolate pudding.

Despite not really loving the Out of the Kitchen cupcakes, we did a pretty good job of tasting them:
We'd heard rave reviews about this place so decided to check it out, but between it soon wore out its welcome, so we headed on over to the nearby Jacques Torres Chocolate, where some of us tried their famed spicy hot chocolate, and others cookies and cupcakes.
I thought this stuffed animal frog was the most adorable thing in the chocolate-filled Jacques Torres:
