Our Story

A small counter on the harbour.

We bake the way pastry is meant to be made, by hand and in small batches, every morning before we open the door. Japanese cotton cheesecake, mille crepe cake, tiramisu, mousse, warm egg custard tarts. European method, a quiet Asian touch.

Order at the counter, find a seat, and pair a razor-clean slice with a coffee, a matcha, or a bubble tea. Cozy, elegant, and steps from the water. People call it the most relaxing stop downtown, and we like it that way.
