Late-night sugar cravings after dining in Haymarket lead straight to Kuki's counter in Steam Mill Lane. Freshly baked cookies emerge warm with a chewy, stretchy mochi centre—taro and matcha are the clear crowd favourites. Pair one directly with a swirl of Earl Grey soft serve; the cold tea flavour cuts clean through the molten dough. Daytime regulars stop by for the concentrated Jasmine Cloud matcha, finished with quick hand-drawn doodles on the lid. Outdoor stools sit right out front along the lane for catching the breeze while the cookie cools.

Before you head over
Practical tips for timing your visit, seating, and ordering dessert combinations.
Expect brief waits at opening
If visiting right at opening time, allow extra time for your order, as batches are freshly baked and may take around 20 minutes to come out.
Utilize precinct seating
Seating directly in front of the stall is limited, but plenty of open public seating is situated throughout Darling Square.
Portion rich sundaes to share
The mochi-filled cookies and soft serve sundaes are very rich and generously portioned—consider sharing or ordering a standalone cookie if you want a lighter finish.
