Everything on the menu is great. Not acidic and v smooth, and even the non-dairy white is solid. A weeee bit pricier but that tiny diff is WORTH!! If u’re new rmb to try the dirty matcha~
Wasn’t too crowded on a Sunday afternoon. Had the matcha latte + espresso and it was AMAZING. Absolutely loved how smooth it was!

What is going to a specialty coffee place without getting their specialty coffee? Though the IG page claims that they serve one from Kyoto, it turned out this time they serve coffee from a local roaster. It is definitely alright in terms of taste #supportlocal, just the discrepancy. However it is still a great hot black and nice aesthetic airy space to spend some time in the area!
Just like what Kyoto and the surrounding region do really well, the Singapore outpost of Kurasu does their matcha latte equally well. It seems that they get their own matcha supplies from Uji itself, and the difference in milk used does not seem to make this drink less special than its original counterpart. The seating area is small, talk long sofas with social distancing markers, and post lunch it can be crowded from students and office workers nearby, but the staff are still very prompt and friendly manning this new spacious, airy, Kyoto-esque feel space of theirs.
Where are some of the coffeehouses that you want to go once the stay at home ban has been lifted?
