About Tea Journal

Food at Tea Journal

Food here means cakes. Reviewers like the tea-fusion cakes for being light and not too sweet, naming black sesame and pistachio, the latter with a chiffon-like texture. A limited-flavour special changes each month, and the shop takes birthday cake orders. One reviewer thought the cakes pricey for their size. The menu has vegetarian options and no kids' menu.
