Cafe$

This underground triple-threat sells specialty concoctions of coffee and matcha alongside grab-and-go Japanese-ish meals, all while sprucing up your dirty sneakers. Drop your shoes off and pick up a freshly whisked matcha with zesty yuzu, or served cold and milky with a “cloud” of nutty kinako (roasted soybean powder) foam. There’s no seating in the ’00s-futurist space, but the fridge is stocked with onigiri from local master Oniballs in flavours including nasi lemak.

Good to know: Spilled your matcha? Sneaker Laundry sells a great stain removing marker.
