The tomatoes were so soft and juicy... but also somehow impossible to squeeze through the straw So naturally, I ended up eating them all. No complaints though -- I LOVE basil! The Sparkling Tomato comes with your choice of matcha: Shizuoka -- bitter & earthy Kagoshima -- sweet & nutty Yame -- umami & rich I love how creative Mitchie Matcha is with their flavours. Tomato + basil + matcha might sound unusual, but it works and makes the drink really fun to try! Next time, I'm definitely going for the Salted Maple Matcha

They have other milk alternatives such as soy or oat, with no extra charge. If you prefer the sweeter ones, the oat milk would be a good choice to get with the matcha. Their house special, the earl grey matcha is good too. There's a strong flavor of earl grey which accentuates the nutty flavor. The interior is nice and cute. There's some seats available, but mostly for two people.

I looooved the storefront itself; it appears that they make their own toppings and have local suppliers for their tea products. You're able to purchase these supplies, as well as artsy pieces made by local small businesses. There was tons of cute Pokemon merchandise! Friendly staff, a good recommendation for matcha and cute little souvenirs. Need to try their milk tea products next time!

This is a cute shop.

I love the crocheted items. They are so cute. We ordered a Baiko Matcha and a Pink Lychee. Both drinks were enjoyable but I honestly didn't taste much Lychee in my drink. I tasted mostly Strawberry in it. I think I would probably choose some kind of tea beverage next time. After all, with a name like Teaspoons & Co., I guess they would excel in making tea rather than a fruity drink like Pin Lychee. I love the selection of goods on their shelves. Passionfruit Syrup and Wintermelon Syrup both caught my eye. The Wintermelon Syrup I found to be especially unique. I have definitely never come across Wintermelong Syrup in a store before. I was very tempted to buy one of them but in the end, ended up restraining myself. Might buy one next time though.

Also got their hojicha amber which tasted reminiscent of a black milk tea with grass jelly. It was a really yummy drink! But I don't think it packed the hojicha flavor I was seeking. Their matcha mochi waffle was better when it had slightly cooled as the mochi develops more chewy texture. I wish the waffle was flavored matcha. Rather, it was more so the matcha powdering and top that was slightly too bitter for my personal taste. However, everything was not too sweet. Note about getting here: Located at the bottom floor of the mall. You'll want to take the escalators down from where Google Maps drops you at.
