"Japan is in the details at this beloved bakery. Take a trip to the land of the rising bun and enjoy a wide range of delicious handmade baked goods. Have a complete experience by grabbing a seat in front of the bakery window to see first-hand the care that goes into the food, as you sink into the comforting embrace of fresh bread. Pro-tip: try the yuzu honey iced tea for a refreshing summer treat! In winter, a cup of their creamy green pea soup will warm you right up." - Paperless Post
"When you want to mix it up a little, hit this Japanese bakery for lunch. You'll find stuff like a spicy salmon sushi roll, but on white bread." - hillary reinsberg
"After Japanese owner Hiroyuki Takahashi opened his first restaurant, Takahachi, he decided to introduce Japanese bread to New York with the opening of Takahachi Bakery in 2011. This cozy bakery is located on a quiet street in Tribeca and specializes in matcha-flavored desserts. No trip here is complete without getting the green tea crepe, which is strong on the matcha flavor and filled with light cream and red bean. It’s rolled into a wrap and held together by parchment paper designed like a piece of newspaper." - izzy chen, team infatuation
"There is no shortage of things to try at this Japanese bakery, including a matcha-and-red-bean swiss roll, a matcha crepe to matcha parfait, mousse cake, and bread. They sell out quickly so go early and with an appetite for matcha." - Twesha Dikshit
