About this place
Among the cakes lining the glass display counter, the caramel banana tart stands out for its torched sugar top, creating a crisp surface and deep toasted aroma. The selection of tarts and cheesecakes also includes a tart lemon tart with refreshing acidity, rich Gorgonzola cheesecake, and subtly sweet apple cheesecake. Guests can pair their slice with carefully brewed coffee, iced café lattes, or fragrant herbal teas for a leisurely afternoon.
While primarily a café, Lotus cafe also offers a substantial menu of savoury meals. The yellowtail teriyaki set meal features tender, flaky fish glazed in a sweet-and-savoury sauce that naturally pairs with steamed rice. Diners can move between Western and Japanese options depending on their mood, from grilled chicken topped with rich Gorgonzola cheese sauce and spaghetti tossed with octopus, spicy pollack roe, and shiso, to Vietnamese-style banh mi sandwiches.
In addition to the ground floor (1F), the café includes a spacious basement level. The generous seating capacity makes it an easy, relaxed place to drop by solo. With craft beers and house wines by the glass on offer, it transitions smoothly from afternoon tea to dinner or a casual evening drink.
