::Calling all matcha lovers! This place is your heaven. They serve matcha green tea flavored iced and hot drinks, soft-serves, and desserts from Pitchoun, the fantastic French bakery located in Downtown. They only use organic ceremonial-grade matcha, which apparently has all these health benefits like antioxidants. I got the hot hojicha latte, which is a roasted green tea. It was only slightly sweetened, nutty, and earthy. It might not be sweet enough for some people, but I rather liked letting the match shine through and enjoying it for that subtle, earthy taste. Out of their 8 drinks or so on their list, only 3 of them can be offered hot--the hojicha latte, matcha americano, and matcha latte. The great thing is that they also offer unsweetened soy milk or almond milk as alternatives. The barista said both the soy and almond were barista grade and would froth up to make a decent latte. The soy comes out a bit frothier, which is why I chose that one. I also enjoyed watching the barista froth up the matcha tea in the traditional Japanese way with a matcha whisk and a bowl. He then poured the matcha tea into my cup, then added the frothed milk, just like a latte. It was a performance worth watching! I will definitely come again and spread the news to all my green tea loving friends. I already know that I'm going to try the Pitchoun desserts next time I come!

::Mediocre. That being said, they do have one of the highest matcha percentage matcha ice cream in the area. Just that the grade of said matcha is disappointing for a specialty shop. Foam bubbles are rough and irregular, compatible with the quality of the service (which is understanding with the tourist traffics at times). Blueberry and watermelon infusions, pastries etc. taste like gimmicky effort to wash down the matcha.

::This place is cozy and have a very relaxing vibe with its green and brown earthy color patterns and aesthetics. Must say that I am very critical of matcha flavors as I have been to Japan multiple times. I have had really good matcha in Japan and places here with matcha flavors have always disappointed but this place was a pleasant surprise! Their matcha soft-serve is rich, thick and creamy accompanied by the slight astringent taste of the matcha powder. It is highly evident that they use real, quality matcha from Japan rather than cheap knock offs. I am giving it a 4/5 because I feel like their ice cream is on the sweet side and if I were to compare it to Tea Master’s soft serve, I like that better because it is not as sweet and lighter in texture but that can just be a personal preference. Although both Midori Matcha and Tea Master uses high grade matcha, tea master’s soft serve is also cheaper (~$3.5)but the quality is just as good or even slightly better by a sliver while Midori is on pricey side (~$5) for a serving of matcha soft-serve while only ~$3.5 for the soft-serve. would like to come back here and try the other desserts and drinks as well.
