First time visiting Hvala at CHIJMES although we have been to the takeaway stand at 313 Somerset basement a few times. The matcha latte has always been consistent at 313 and it is equally good at the CHIJMES cafe. It’s thick, and the matcha notes are really strong. There’s just enough milk to balance out the bitterness and Hvala’s is probably as close to matcha latte perfection as anyone can get. At its price point, it is actually comparable or even cheaper than Starbucks and other coffee joints. So if you’re looking for a dedicated matcha place and don’t want coffee, this is where you should head for sure.
