Guidebook for Vancouver
Food Scene
Super cute little Japanese cafe. Really great coffee / tea / matcha drinks, great food, and just a really good vibe. The decor is almost all handmade by the family that runs the place.
TIP
Definitely have the Tuna Tataki (on salad or rice) and add the +$3 Lunch Set. Comes with a tiny soup of the day, tiny fermented veg, and an assortment of treats.
