Basho Cafe: Sunday Treats

This past weekend my friend and I visited Basho Cafe, a family run Japanese Cafe that has recently opened up in East Vancouver. 
We arrived just in time for the Afternoon Tea special which is a hot matcha latte accompanied by 3 sweet treats from a selection of freshly baked, mostly gluten/vegan and matcha delights. My matcha latte came with a chocolate chip cookie, a mochi chocolate brownie (gluten-free) and a piece of their matcha brownie.

Afternoon Tea Special ($5, after 2 pm) 

Chocolate Chip Cookie- chewy and fresh 

Mochi Chocolate Brownie- unique, filled with flavor, interesting texture 

Matcha Brownie- fresh,gooey,sweet and ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! This is a treat I would order 1000x over again, I highly recommend! 

Another thing that I loved about this cafe is the environment and atmosphere. Both the decor and the staff were welcoming and genuine. The decor was handmade by the owners and offered a unique touch that cannot be found at most cafes. 

The menu consists of baked goods, drinks and there is a small selection of lunch options which I will be trying next time I go. 

I really enjoyed this cafe. The baked goods were incredible and both my friend and I will be coming back to indulge in more.
