    It was my first time doing a matcha workshop and I enjoyed my experience here at 123Dough Organic Cafe in downtown. The experience consisted of a guided tutorial on how to whisk & make your own authentic matcha. We got the black matcha powder to try out and a full set of tools to make your matcha. A scoop of icecream came at the end so we could make an affacado drink :)) Beyond the workshop itself, the cafe overall is really spacious with plenty of seats & tables. Nice atmosphere for tea talk and studying maybe. I would definitely come here again whenever I'm in Yaletown as I do love to support independent businesses over large franchises

    I ordered the green matcha roll and creme bruelee macaron. The matcha roll was moist, but could have used a stronger matcha presence. The macaron was divine. It reminded me of a caramel popcorn that I enjoy making. It also had a nice chewy texture. Customer service is outstanding and the store has such a cute set up. They sell a variety of teas, candles, and other items.

    I came here for a matcha workshop and it was such a fun experience! I don't know many places in Vancouver that do this, but what really stood out was being able to try black matcha. It has a completely different flavor profile from green matcha and Julia, who was hosting the workshop did a great job at explaining everything. We were able to try a green matcha latte, green matcha affogato, and iced black matcha. The interior of the cafe is well designed and looks super cozy and cute! The entire team at 123Dough is also some of the sweetest people I know.

    Thank you, Ethan, for reading my review and inviting me back. And thank you, Daniel, for such a thoughtful explanation of the matcha's origins and the café's vision; it's clear that you genuinely care about the quality of what you serve. I tried both the green matcha and black matcha today. Both teas were rich and full with bold flavours. The green matcha had a stronger bitterness than the ones I usually drink, thanks to its unique preparation process. The black matcha offered a contrasting profile--herbal, earthy, and even a little chocolatey. I also tried the maple waffle. The texture was on the denser side and it was covered with the most amazing (and not too sweet) maple glaze. The cafe also offers monthly workshops and events!

    We came here for the tea omakase. It was quite a unique and fun experience! We tasted 4 different types of teas and the accompanying snacks and pastries. I loved the variety of the tea flavours. Each tasted so fresh and delicate. Each little snack also tasted very fresh and made with good quality ingredients. Overall, I feel this cafe serves high quality tea and food. All made fresh, not stale like big chain coffee shops. The cafe's ambiance is modern and chill. Prices are quite reasonable for Yaletown. The staff are friendly and low key.

    i'll admit, i was impressed when the owner personally replied and offered to make things right, mentioning they'd made some updates to their drinks. they absolutely didn't have to; most places might offer a polite apology, if anything. but instead, they reached out with genuine care, and it made me feel like my feedback mattered. i won't lie, i debated whether to take them up on their offer, it felt a little awkward to bring it up in person, but i'm glad i did. they explained that they used to make their own oat milk from scratch and that everything here is done organically. they explained that were probably out of oat milk when i was there three months ago and re made it again. they're currently sourcing premium oat milk. in addition, i was also offered a sourdough cookie, a thoughtful gesture that showed just how far they were willing to go to stand behind their products and make me feel welcomed back. that kind of professionalism and service is rare, and it genuinely sets them apart from so many other cafés that never go beyond lip service. this time, the matcha was properly whisked, no gritty residue at the bottom or sides and the drink had a much smoother finish. that said, the matcha itself was still a bit weak in flavour. the orange confit earl grey cookie was a little too sweet and dense for my taste, but the effort and care that went into it were clear. the space remains beautiful, calm, and polished, but what really stood out this time was the commitment to customer service. when a business not only listens but responds with sincerity, it elevates the entire experience.

    This placed opened 14 June. Spring opening for organic food in no other than hippy Yaletown. There's specials for opening week. 50% off açai bowls or smoothies. The owner mentioned that there is another store in NY and they're co-owned by another restaurant that does afternoon tea - Wild Orchard/ 8 Corners Tearoom. As you walk in, the place is airy with lots of space. Açai bowls are delicious and hearty.

    Spacious cafe. I tried the frosted black matcha and thought it was a tad on the sweeter side but overall enjoyable. Staff was friendly.

    Usually for last few years I've been ordering from Esther at Dipnsip & Unni Pastries. I was…read morereferred at my friend's wedding as I was looking for cakes and pastries for in-laws. Well it seems ownership has changed and the new owner doesn't give two craps about prior customers, honoring discounts, replying back timely or being more friendly? Was playing email tag and finally submitted the 39 flavors and didn't hear back until after another week and then told they won't deliver only in morning when they know our reservation was for 730pm and they're open until 9? I even replied back and nothing. We own and run several business in lower mainland and in United States and this customer service from Unni Pastries is trash. At least you can do is reply back and apologize? For wasting time when I specifically told you it's for family and friends flying into town for a funeral burial. Will never use their business again. I highly suggest Mello. They replied and helped me out last minute. Shame on you! Learn how to run a business and treat customers esp previous customers who were supporting the business and fellow Krn but it's clear the new owner doesn't care about the customer or quality it's all about quantity. Maybe my 39 donuts which I offered to pay extra for time and packaging wasn't large enough but money is money. Especially during this time and economy. You should've at least replied back and even tried asking us to do pickup as the restaurant is down the road. Do better! Go to Mello which isn't too far and they bake fresh daily better pricing and reviews and consistency!

And also the more modern cold desserts such as mango, ube sago and even grass jellies. We opt to order their ube trio and it was heavenly. It had an authentic and strong ube taste. The sagos were cooked just right with the perfect texture and most importantly, it wasn't too sweet. We also ordered their instagram worthy mahjong tiles which is essentially red bean and coconut pudding. It's very cute and definitely instagram worthy. It's not too sweet and I liked that it came with a side of red bean sauce which made it less dry. The money is also made of edible paper but we didn't touch it cuz it felt weird eating it. However, it wasn't anything special and we wouldn't order it again. It was quite busy when we arrived on a Friday night but it's much easier to go in a smaller party. We were a party of 2 and walked right in even though others were waiting because they needed a bigger table. The place is clean and service was fast. They don't have a time limit even though they are busy so it's a great hang out spot. We would definitely be back to try out other items they have to offer.

And right now (not sure until when) they have a giant sandpit installed in the middle of their store. If you spend $25, you get to play with their toy excavator. And if you collect over 30g of gems, you can spin the wheel and win prizes. (Big prize = $20 coupon) Great for keeping kids and adults that are still kids at heart (myself included), happily occupied.

    Waaah I loved this place! Vancouver, how lucky you are to have Konbiniya!…read more Walking into this place felt a little bit like being transported into Japan. I'm from the Bay Area and we have our fair share of Japanese grocery stores (shout out to Niiya in Japantown in San Francisco) but I was very excited to see the selection here. Definitely came across items I've never seen before like a Takoyaki flavored Ramune. It was extremely discounted just fyi probably for good reason. They even had Japanese canned drinks stored hot like in Japan! The take away Japanese desserts also looked good. This place is right on Robson street so a great place to grab a snack, drink, pick me up while shopping. Prices seemed reasonable. One caveat is that it can get busy in here and the aisles are small so it felt a little crowded but that's sort of like Japan as well lol so not a big deal for me. Added to the ambience. Checkout was quick and easy!

It sounds crowded - and it is - but once you push your way to the back of the store, you'll find a tiny Japan tour travel agency and a shelf of clearance items at rock-bottom prices. Service is cheerful, personable and brisk. The store also houses a takeaway crepe and ice cream shop - the crepes are actually better than the ones I've had in Tokyo.
