About Us
Tiny kissaten-style Japanese cafe on St Georges Road in Fitzroy North — owner Tats Kawabata runs a minimalist 12-seat room with Merri Creek views, thick-cut shokupan from Brioche by Philip, and a short menu of Japanese-leaning brunch toasts, dry curry fried rice, and a deep tea list (matcha, lapsang, blossoming jasmine). Signature hollowed shokupan holds curry-and-cheese fillings; azuki-butter and tamago toasts are regular draws. Coffee from Wide Open Road. Instagram brands the venue as kissaten and periodic Shochu bar service; walk-in only, very limited seating — easy to miss from the street.
