Solid spot for satisfying Asian snacks & an absurd range of matcha.

Found this place hunting for a quick afternoon snack. Despite the heavy student crowd in the area, the cafe was nearly empty. The one a couple doors down was packed wall to wall, so I'm not sure what the locals know that I don't, but the quiet made it a nice, relaxing stop.

Montreal's matcha scene feels smaller than most US cities, so this place fills the gap by going all in. Alongside Asian snacks like onigiri & donburi bowls, they play with matcha in just about every form I've come across. Fruity matcha lattes, a matcha coconut cloud, even matcha with egg foam. I went with the guava matcha cloud, which came out gentle & floral, the guava sitting lightly on top of the matcha rather than steamrolling it.

For snacks, we grabbed crab (kani) & eel onigiri. A tad pricier than the onigiri I've had at other cafes, but they were generous with the protein, & the avocado & sauce kept everything balanced. Even the rice-to-filling ratio felt right, which is the thing most places get wrong.

Worth a stop if you want a good snack to go with your matcha.

Lakafe, I am really impressed with your Vietnamese egg coffee as well as Vietnamese salt coffee. I kept trying & trying & most of your peers are not doing them as well as you in Montreal. Only you & another one shop are doing the genuine / real Vietnamese egg coffee & Vietnamese salt coffee. Keep up with the great work. Next time I will try your coconut matcha cloud as well as your golden osmanthus (many serious coffee lovers I know are in love with those two). Bravo!
