About this place
The duck breast sandwich is a satisfying choice when you want something substantial. Diners who have ordered it say the slices of duck are thick and filling. It is also wrapped in paper, making it easy to eat—whether you are having breakfast in the café or taking a sandwich with you.
For a lighter combination, try the open sandwich with avocado and smoked salmon. One diner who ordered it as part of a breakfast set described a plate layered with cream cheese, leaf lettuce and basil oil. Other options include an egg sandwich and a teriyaki chicken and tartar sauce sandwich, so there is a choice of fillings.
The café latte, made with a choice of light- or dark-roast espresso, is a signature drink. The menu describes the light roast as fruity and the dark roast as full-bodied, so you can pick a cup to suit your sandwich. Higoro Blend is served as hand-dripped coffee when hot and cold-brewed when iced; the café describes it as having a clean finish. For something to go with your coffee, consider a muffin made with Japanese-grown wheat flour or a weekend-only canelé.
Several muffin flavours are available, and visitors have noted both the pleasure of choosing between them and their moist texture. One menu option sandwiches anko (sweet red bean paste) and butter between muffins, making it a tempting choice when you want a sweet treat to take centre stage.
Dine in during breakfast and lunch hours; the café also says it suits solo diners. Whether you are starting the day with a sandwich and coffee or pausing over a latte and baked treat, you can choose a visit to match your appetite.
