Honolulu’s Matcha Stand Maiko Powers Into Las Vegas and Henderson | Eater Vegas

"A Hawaii-born walk-up matcha stand that began in Honolulu in summer 2016 is expanding via a franchise spinoff to open two outposts in Las Vegas and Henderson (each city limited to a single cafe), though exact locations and an opening timeline haven’t been announced. The shop makes its entire menu in-house — including soft ice cream, sponge cake, an adzuki bean topping, and Kokuto gelatin — and imports finely ground matcha from Uji, Kyoto supplied by Harima Garden, a noted producer since 1858. Expect vividly green, Instagram-ready desserts and drinks such as parfaits, soft ice cream in waffle cones, shaved ice, teas, lattes, and floats, with props provided for customers to pose for photos." - Bradley Martin
