    Ice Strawberry Matcha Latte
    Chi C.

    Near the corner of 10th and Race in Chinatown, this cute bakery and cafe offers a welcoming space for desserts and sweet treats. They provide both traditional café-style drinks, as well as mini cakes and slices at the counter. I wasn't expecting this at first, but their Strawberry Matcha Latte is probably one of the top 5 I've had in the city. The flavoring is at the bottom, so mix thoroughly before drinking, but the matcha was delicious and a good balance of sweet and flavorful. They also provide cake decorating, which was a really fun activity I joined in with my friends in a group! You're given a small stack of postcards to choose a design, and a canvas of icing colors to paint your mini cake. (For all intents and purposes, the cake was delicious too.) This spot is still relatively new, but it's a great addition to the neighborhood and a definite revisit for me to get their matcha again.

    Cake decorating set up and supplies- palette, inspiration postcards, pre-frosted mini cake, tools, and miscellaneous sprinkles
    Katie S.

    O Cake Cafe is a new bakery in Chinatown with baked goods on par with, if not rivaling, the quality and taste of neighbors. I did their cake decorating workshop, which was a relaxing way to spend a weekend afternoon with friends. --- O Cake Cafe offers mini cake decorating for $26/pp. I thought this was a steal! To clarify, there is no "class" portion of the workshop and it isn't piping, but more like painting with palette knives on a cake. You will be given a cake, a palette, some tools, and allowed time to work peacefully at your own pace. I genuinely enjoyed the experience and felt like it was an stress-free time. However, it was a little messy! Also notably, they have a $10 credit card minimum. For the cake, you can choose between four shapes- circle, square, heart, and butterfly. They pre-frosted the mini cake with their white butter-based frosting. Separately, they also prepared a palette of butter-based frostings (pink, blue, yellow, green, and white), which is the same as the frosting on the cake. They provided some tools- pallet knives, tweezers, and a paintbrush. We were given postcards as inspiration photos, which we could then place on a mini-easel to reference as we worked. Lastly, there were some whimsical mini decorations like pearls, seahorses, starfishes, etc. The butter-based frosting was a little hard to work with since it was not set on the cakes. Since the palette also consisted of dyed butter-based frosting, this meant when you tried to add any frosting, the whole surface shifted around. In the future, I'd definitely let them know my cake shape early (via WeChat), if possible, to have an easier time decorating so they'll have more time to set the cake. I also wish there were more colors to choose from and more of each color to decorate with. Afterwards, they helped us box our cakes in clear containers. It was great to show off our work! We were also gifted complimentary Oreo mochi with whipped cream frosting with Oreo chunks inside- they were absolutely delicious! I felt like the mochi skin was a great texture. I also tried their pandan coconut cake. Honestly, I've never eaten too much pandan but it was such a great spongey texture, good flavor. Lastly, the physical cake I decorated was so delicious! It was the perfect spongey texture, and not too sweet. However, I found I had to remove a lot of the butter frosting I decorated with since it made the cake too rich for my tastes. I ate the cake in one sitting! Overall, I'd highly recommend O Cake Cafe's cake decorating to anyone who wants to spend an hour or two doing something fun, artistic, and edible at a great price! The cafe is new, so I think they're still figuring out the decorating workshop logistics. I'd recommend to not come if you're in a rush. Their dessert offerings are also very highly recommended.

    Chestnut crepe cake

    My friends and I were looking for a dessert place after having lunch, and we stumbled upon O Cake Cafe and found out from the friendly staff that they had only been opened for a few days. The cafe is small, so it is not a place to hang out long at. We quickly ate and then left. We shared the durian crepe cake and chestnut crepe cake. The durian crepe cake was very flavorful while the chestnut crepe cake was more muted. The cakes were not overly sweet, which made them easy to eat. However, the crepes were a little thick. I also tried the matcha latte, which was okay. O Cake Cafe is not the best cafe out there, but they have unique cake flavors that I would come back for.

    Strawberry matcha latte

    I ran in here for a quick stop and drink. Since it's a bakery, I wasn't expecting anything, but I was genuinely floored when I tried the strawberry matcha. This is the BEST strawberry matcha I've ever had - period. And it was only $5.50! Much cheaper than many of the actual cafes in the city. The strawberry jam was sooo flavorful. Some of my friends said it tasted more like strawberry milk than matcha, but I found it to be perfect.

    Twisted Grounds is a quiet little gem tucked away from the main hustle and bustle of the city…read more The employees are really nice and welcoming. Service is quick. It is a very small shop, so there are only a few tables inside, along with a few outside depending on the weather. Although small, the interior is clean and cozy. A single restroom is available. Parking is on the street. Mild noise level. They have a good amount of drink options, including rotating specials, as well as pastries, bread, and misc items like granola and coffee beans. The drinks are delicious - definitely recommend their matcha. The pastries are huge, flavorful, and filling. Slightly dry but I did go right before closing. They have a nice variety of flavors (both sweet and savory), so most palettes will be satisfied. Prices are definitely fair. If I weren't just a traveler passing through, this would easily become a regular spot for me. It's at least on the "must return to" list! 10/10 recommend.

The service was also super kind and answered all my questions I had beforehand. I did wish there was open seating for me either inside or out because I had a long walk but there's only 3 tables inside and a couple out so if you plan on staying maybe come a bit earlier

Each morning, I visited this café during my last visit and enjoying a cup of hot chocolate both times. One of the first things I noticed as I walked into the café was the atmosphere. It felt welcoming! My hot chocolate had the smooth richness and was great to start the morning off. There were plenty of tables to sit at in the morning. The style of the café was great with a modern and clean, yet warm enough to make those early morning hours seem somewhat purposeful, and not as rushed as they could be! If you're looking for breakfast options, it is slightly limited at this café. There were some muffins and baked goods available. My experience with El Café in The Hilton Mōttō was very good overall. I enjoyed the hot chocolate. It was rich, smooth and perfect comfort in the morning on the go. The customer service was also great! They were friendly, helpful and welcoming. Additionally, I thought the prices for their coffee and hot chocolate was reasonable. I'd stop by El Café again if I stay at the Hilton Motto.

The biscuit sandwich was impressive with a beautiful fluffy biscuit, slightly crisp on the outside and soft inside made for a delicious breakfast. On a Saturday morning, it was easy to find a great seat and enjoy conversation over quick bites and sips. Although the blood orange ginger espresso tonic sounded intriguing, I was a little nervous to try it; but maybe next time!
