Japanese cafe with matcha lattes, onigiri, sandos, and cakes
"Metcha Matcha’s name is not ironic. There is a whole lot of matcha happening at this corridor of a cafe-cum-shop on Tottenham’s Philip Lane. It’s in the lattes that sit beside a freelancer’s laptop, it’s delicately sprinkled on top of the joyfully creamy ‘antozzo’ buns, and it’s the leading component of the freshly baked—albeit slightly dry—matcha cookies on the counter. The over-stuffed tuna onigiri are a rice flight risk and the doorstop bread sandos aren’t quite worth the jaw dislocation potential, so stick to a zingy yuzu blondie and a comforting hoji tea. If you live in the area, grab a bag of gyoza from the freezer by the till, a box of Haruka sushi rice from the shelves, and admire the Furbies whose existence we choose not to question. video credit: Heidi Lauth Beasley Pause Unmute" - Heidi Lauth Beasley
"This Japanese cafe in Tottenham is from the same people behind one of our favourite okonomiyaki spots, OkonomiHeads. There’ll be Japanese lattes, onigiri, sandwiches, and home-baked cakes like matcha blondies. " - sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
"Sushi Heads is a teeny, tiny Japanese shop and takeaway counter that’s hidden on Phillip Lane. When you first walk in you’ll see a couple of freezers packed full of frozen dumplings, an array of bottled sauces, a cute cartoon sushi mural, and a couple of Furbys whose existence we choose not to question. You’ll probably spend a small fortune on Japanese cards, custard dorayaki, and chilli garlic kombu oil alongside your sushi order here, but that’s just the risk you have to take. Despite being so small they’ve got everything from donburi to nigiri to choose from, but it’s the katsu ebu futomaki that we’re really into. That being said, you can’t go wrong with a classic spicy tuna roll or a little salmon sashimi either." - Heidi Lauth Beasley
