Reviews
We tried the all day combos:
Tuna Tataki Bowl ($15) to make it a combo (+$3) – combo had the soup, vegetables and a small dessert muffin. Absolutely delicious! Tuna had spices, and it was the perfect about. Everything from the tuna to the side dishes was so good. The mochi muffin was “meh”, but we couldn’t pick the flavor we wanted, so a random dessert muffin.
Pork Belly Teri Bowl ($15) also (+$3 for combo) – choice of white rice, 8 grain rice (+$2) or mixed greens (+$3). Gravy on the pork belly was very tasty. Pork Belly was very tender, just melts in the mouth.
Also had drinks:
Matcha Latte ($5) – great matcha taste
Hojicha Latte ($5) – very strong hojicha taste as well.
It was a little warm and air conditioning was not very strong. But they had the door opened, so it wasn’t too stuffy.
Customer service was great! Chef was doing the cooking and lady was taking the orders, but super nice couple.
Although we thought it was a little pricey, it was worth it for such a good meal.
They have great baked goods/treats like mochi muffins, daifuku and other pasteries. Plus seasonal drinks like strawberry white matcha lattee and roasted sweet potato lattee.
I ordered a Pork Belly bowl lunch set, which came with the bowl, a small fresh veggie appetizer, pickled vegetables, miso soup, and their moffin (mini mochi muffin)! This cost $21 which I think is quite fair for a small family owned cafe.
The pork belly was delicate and melts in your mouth with rich flavour. The rest of the lunch set were nice to have as they added a lot more variety to my meal, and although individually they aren’t anything that to write about, they do a great job at combining together to form a well rounded lunch.
The presentation of the food is lovely, so it is a feast for both the eyes and mouth.
The ambiance is also very homey, very warm. Quiet music plays in the cafe as young Japanese children chatter among each other at the toys & crafts table. It really gives the impression that you’re visiting someone’s home for lunch.
Overall, I was very pleased with my visit, and they will likely see me again in the future!
But the wait was kinda long. 10 minutes to get order taken, 20 to get drinks, 30 to get food. If you don’t mind a leisurely pace, it’s fine. But if you’re hangry, best to go across the street.
おごちそうさまでした。
ほんとうに、ありがとうございます。
