NIKO NEKO MATCHA 2.0 @ CHINATOWN, KUALA LUMPUR

 

After patronizing its Bangsar outlet previously, it’s great that finally able to find it at another location where the parking is not so dreadful as well as it’s within walking distance from MRT Pasar Seni- should you are not in the mood of driving.

Niko Neko themed as The Concept Store 2.0 for its second branch, is still very much carrying its iconic minimalist style. Mainly adorned with white and light grayish blue hue, the space provides a serenely chilling respite for anyone who seeks for a quiet corner for tea time.

 

Upon stepping in, you will find the interior is on the elongated size, making it a rather rectangular café which stretches all the way through the second premise towards the back. First glance of the setting immediately conjures up the familiar memory where I spent my time in science lab, back at high school, hehe.

 

When it comes to matcha, I’m more of a purist. Hence, decided to try out the clear tea on its own without any sugar, milk nor ice, just to enjoy it pristinely. Perhaps, I might keep it next round for milk-based.

 

MOKUREN / GENMAICHA TEA (MYR 9)

Shaded Green Tea and Roasted Brown Rice that comes with rice-crackerish and matcha aftertaste without much tea astringence. I would say it’s a friendly drink for general palate.

 

 

MATCHA MARBLE ROULADE (MYR 13)

Niko Neko x Palette Patissier

This delicate Matcha roulade combines several textures in one with a soft, thin layer of crunchy Yuri Matcha meringue on the outside, that perfectly contrasts the light and airy half-matcha, half-whipped cream filling. It would be my perfect Zenful matcha moment had the dessert is less sweet.

MELTY HOUJICHA MARBLE LOAF CAKE (MYR 10)

Niko Neko x Wizards

Soft butter loaf made using Tsubaki Houjicha ganache accompanied by fluffy and soft half-houjicha, half-butter loaf cake.

There you go, my quick fix of these greeneries of Matcha, Genmaicha and Houjicha at one go! Otherwise, my usual place  would always be at Kita Coffee which is located much nearer to me and the best bet!

 

Till then, cheers for now and follow us at Carpe Diem for more ‘food-ful’ discoveries!
