Ochacha~ my new love

I love Greentea! Esp when i have tried the Green Tea Frappe from Starbucks. Ochacha immediately caught my eye when i was heading to Shokudo for dinner. I told myself that i must definitely give this shop a try one day!

Fast enough, within two weeks, i have visited the shop 3 times! Very clean looking shop. They have powerpoints by the side so u could actually work on yr laptop there! A good news for people like me whose battery can only last for 15mins...

After surfing thru some food blogs for reviews, and by the recommendation of the staff, we ordered this hot green tea: Green Tea Latte. Hmm... not too bad... can taste the quality of the green tea but the milk tasted a lil like baby's milk powder.

Matcha Azuki cake ($4 b4 GST). Just look at the powdery green tea cake with small layers of fresh cream and azuki! So pretty! Seldom see green tea cakes ard except the one from Breadtalk. But this has a stronger matcha taste, less creamy... doesn't feel sinful at all after eating! self-comforting... how healthy can dessert be -_-" They have other varieties of desserts such as panna cotta, sponge cake, biscuit, muffin etc.... all green tea flavours

2nd visit: Azuki Freeze ($6.50 b4 GST) + Sakura Egg sandwich ($4.80 b4 GST)
Azuki Freeze: Very expensive... but very nice~ Green tea and azuki (Red bean) is such a perfect combination! it's not too sweet like Starbucks Green Tea frappe... so u don't feel jieliat after drinking. Refreshing!

Sakura Egg Sandwich: You get to choose btwn Foccacia or panini bread. Comes along with seaweed potato chips (i think it's calbee brand) and a bowl of salad. Oh i muz comment on the salad! I am never a all greens salad lover (muz at least have potato or meat)... but this salad is gd! I have no idea what dressing they used but it tasted like jap soy sauce... a lil saltly but very nice, unlike those creamy fattening thousand island. The salad is topped with corns, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, wasabi green peas! Very fresh ingredients used!

Salad ratings: 4/5

Oh look at the fillings! not sure what those pink colour stuff are... Although it's just a simple egg mayo sandwich, i think $4.80(b4 GST) is pretty worth it, given that my other sandwich cafes are getting more expensive (i.e. Ce*el*... more than $7 for a sandwich!). The ingredients are really fresh. This is much better and healthier than eating mcdonalds!

The staffs are very friendly. Greeted every customers who stepped in... Offering free samples of their drinks w/o u asking... I guess i will be going again soon!
