The food here is sooooo good. Perfect ratio of fresh ingredients. I got the salt foam on a matcha latte & my friend got the salt foam coffee latte. Both amazing tasting & huge for the price. Love this place!

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.

This place has so many cool drink options! Matchas & lattes galore. Got the brown sugar egg foam latte & it was so good. Their salmon onigiri type sandwich was also fresh & a good lunch portion. It's not a big cafe but great to go with a friend to catch up over some food & drink.
