Best Boy Electric - Review - Japantown - San Francisco - The Infatuation
"If it weren’t for the sandwich board outside with a picture of a bewildered cat, you might just miss this coffee shop on the ground floor of the New People building in Japantown. Inside you’ll find cat-themed merchandise, but don’t get distracted. You’re here for the drinks. There are standard coffee concoctions with some flourishes like Okinawan sugar, but we like to stick to the matcha lattes here. Purists should opt for the classic matcha latte that’s light and refreshing and served with no added sweetener so the green tea flavor is front and center. When you’re ready to branch out, try the black sesame matcha latte. Pair it with a pastry from local bakeries like Loquat and Third Culture. And if you’re lucky, you’ll find a seat at one of the handful of communal tables, typically filled with people camping out on their laptops next to, ironically, the occasional dog." - Patrick Wong
