  • Elite Signature Sandwiches

    A standout savory menu features generous portions of tender, seasoned chicken served on warm, fresh bread.

    The signature algorithm chicken sandwich is elite. Its absolutely top tier.

  • Curated Bakery Partnerships & Asian-Fusion Sweets

    In addition to savory sandwiches, the kitchen pairs breakfast staples with curated regional treats like crisp pandan croissants.

    delicious Pandan Croissant (I think it was $9.50 😅), we later found out is from Pantry Story (Stanmore)!!! Another Indonesian bakery we like eating at, lovely surprise :)) It was crispy and fresh, the filling was so yum - it was like a pandan custard.

    We ordered the Rhythm Coffee, Jasmine Matcha Cloud, Matchapresso, and a hot chocolate with oat milk — and every single drink exceeded our expectations. What really stood out were the signature cream toppings on the cold drinks: silky, rich, and incredibly addictive without being overly sweet.

  • Matchapresso

    The ratio is pretty much half half, espresso cream and matcha.
