Traditionally, matcha was consumed only on special occasions, as its preparation requires meticulous attention, resulting in finding good matcha-flavoured dishes and drinks being difficult. Recently, with the surge in popularity of bubble teas, and other South Asian delicacies, matcha has acquired a favourable name in the market (happy us), and our favourite way to consume matcha is incorporating it in our desserts. So, here is our list of the best cafes and bakeries that make the most delicious powdered green tea-flavoured treats, and completely match our matcha expectations.
The 8 Best Places In Delhi-NCR To Get Your Matcha Dessert Fix
The For’est
This Korean bakery and bistro in Vasant Vihar is the perfect place to get your cute Korean desserts and cakes that we all see on Instagram. The ambience of the place is cozy and welcoming, the entrance being surrounded by flowers and plants. One can also buy baked bread and other goods, which are freshly baked to perfection, and to satisfy your matcha craving, you should definitely try their matcha dojima cake, matcha roll cake, and matcha tart.
London Bubble Co.
Specialising only in desserts, London Bubble Co is situated in Lajpat Nagar and serves some of the most mouth-watering desserts, shakes, and waffles. They have more than 15 kinds of waffles, all at very reasonable prices, and for your matcha pick, we recommend their Matcha Man bubble waffle.
Harajuku Tokyo Cafe
Inspired by the streets of Harajuku, this cafe has the prettiest interiors—be it their desserts or their walls, you will want to put everything on your Instagram (that’s how cute everything is). They have coffee, bubble tea, cakes, buns, mochi cookies, and more, which will definitely make you feel spoilt for choice, and their matcha pancakes are a must-try.
Burma Burma
Burma Burma is a well-established name, known for serving some amazing Indo-Burmese food. Every dish of theirs is a must-try and their desserts stand for nothing less than 'all of our collective dreams come true'. However, if you are a bubble tea fan, their matcha bubble tea is some of the best bubble tea available out there.
Yum Yum Cha
If you’re looking for some matcha mochi, then Yum Yum Cha should be a must-visit. The establishment is famous for offering a wide variety of Asian cuisine, such as baos, sushi, rice bowls, and dim sums, but as mentioned they have a great selection of mochis as well, matcha mochi being worth a try.
Guppy
Guppy should be on everyone’s list for their authentic ramen bowl and Ghibli-inspired decor. The restaurant offers scrumptious Japanese delicacies, but we want you to not miss out on their desserts. Their matcha ice cream is so creamy, with rich matcha flavour balancing the sweetness, a perfect way to end your ramen date.
My Tea Chapel
Bored of coffee dates? Do Matcha frappe dates instead! Visit 'My Tea Chapel' in Gurugram and have the best matcha green tea frappe that will haunt your dreams and question your love for coffee. The place is highly recommended for quick bites and we love their peri-peri veg pizza to go along with the beverages.
Kampai
Another good spot to add to your matcha desserts list is Kampai, serving smooth, creamy matcha ice cream. Located in Vasant Kunj, the place is famous for its ramen bowls, sushi, and cocktails. The ambiance is super luxurious and the food presentation is taken very seriously, so that you feast from your eyes as well as your stomach.
