New in town: ToMo Cafe — Japanese-style Iced Tiramisu Latte & Miso Butter Crab Pasta in Joo Chiat

Easties are fortunate that the East is home to an abundance of fantastic eating places. Now, Japanese-style ToMo Cafe joins the party in Joo Chiat, with an array of unique Japanese dishes sure to wow in more ways than just taste.

Want to know an adorable fact? “Tomo” means friend in Japanese, and this cafe references it in their motto: Come as you are, leave as a friend. It’s a heartwarming sentiment, wouldn’t you agree?

ToMo Cafe — Interior

Serving modern Japanese fusion food, ToMo Cafe prides itself on its range of classic, fulfilling delights that are sure to comfort the soul. It looks like the perfect place for a late brunch to me!

Naturally, the food is the focus but ToMo Cafe appeals to our visually-motivated nature, too. It’s all about beautiful minimalistic vibes that will look fantastic in your Instagram stories.

ToMo Cafe — Red Wine Pork Jowl

Many folks adore the Red Wine Char Siew Jowl (S$16) here, remarking that it is incredibly flavourful. The charred surface on the jowl makes for a fantastic contrasting flavour against the sweetness of the red wine marinade, creating a harmony that’s hard to refuse.

If that doesn’t suit your fancy, ToMo Cafe also offers mains like toast and pasta for a more filling meal. With intriguing dishes like Clam Umeshu Pasta (S$20) and Cold Crab Sando (S$22), you’ll definitely be in a dilemma about what to order here.

ToMo Cafe — Iced Tiramisu Latte

The drinks list will be the first page I turn to on the menu. ToMo Cafe has some creative concoctions such as Sesame Latte (S$7 for hotS$8 for iced), Iced Tiramisu Latte (S$9) and Matcha Mango Cloud Latte (S$8), among other wacky ones. Be prepared to visit early as it is common for the most popular options to be sold out before they close on most days.

For the best experience, definitely bring your friends along to try out what ToMo Cafe has to offer. Who knows, maybe this Japanese-inspired wonder will top your cafe hopping list very soon…
