Matcha Café To Go by the Umami Matcha Café team

Three years after the opening of Umami Matcha Café, the first spot in Paris entirely dedicated to matcha green tea, the Umami team is opening a second establishment. This news should delight tea lovers!

Called Matcha Café To Go, this second spot opens its doors in the 17th arrondissement of Paris. The co-founders, Laure and Jean Béguin, have imagined a place that rethinks the 'food to go' offer, in order to extend the art of Japanese dining.

So the coffee shop spirit is declined here in a take-away version; but of course: always around matcha! On the menu, gourmands and gourmets will be able to discover a new offer of bento boxes (consigned, a good point for the environment!).
