Maccha House @ Orchard Central

Maccha House is yet another green tea themed Japanese café that has sprouted out at the basement level of Orchard Central. Besides whipping up even more matcha based beverages and desserts, this outlet also serves udon and ramen mains.

We dropped by during lunchtime and I decided to try their Kyoto Style Ramen ($10.90+)which was described as having some yuzu seasoning. Unfortunately, the ramen did not live up to expectations- while the noodles were sufficiently springy, the soup was served lukewarm and the bowl just contained some chicken slices and vegetable ingredients. The yuzu seasoning was not really detected at all, which was a disappointment. I was wondering how yuzu flavoured ramen would taste.

Perhaps it’s a good idea to stick to the green tea based food here. I had their Hot Matcha Latte ($4.40+) which I felt had a nice balance of fragrant matcha and milk. The matcha drink was a tad too sweet for me and unfortunately, the sweetness level cannot be altered as I was told their matcha base
is pre-made.

Do note the prices listed on the menu are not inclusive of 7% GST. Charges will be added at the cashier.

    1. But I guess they were just starting out and perhaps need more time to tweak their menu =)
