Made a trip to Wimbledon just to try out Cafe Mori and was very impressed. We ordered the following:
- Matcha Crepe
- Chicken GaraAge
- Matcha Bubble Tea
I have no hesitation in saying the GaraAge was the best GaraAge I have ever had which is a big statement. It was the most tender bit of chicken I can remember having with flavourful cuts of chicken thigh and a simple wasabi dip accompanying it nicely. Its pleasant surprise value coming from what is ostensibly a café also gives it brownie points.
The crepe, which is more like a cake was also divine sitting perfectly on the edge of becoming a too rich. Wonderful creaminess and not too sweet, this and the chicken show that the chefs here clearly know what they're doing.
The bubble tea was a bit of a let down, being fairly mediocre. The other things ordered above warrant a trip to Wimbledon alone but for a spot calling itself a café, I'd argue more care needs to be given to its tea. With that said, it boasts a generous menu of various beverages so it's possible a different order would solve the issue and I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt. read more
