Chabashira Tea Roastery
Matcha enthusiasts rave about the quality and range, with many calling it the best in Malaysia. Reviewers consistently praise the authentic Japanese teahouse feel, high-end ingredients sourced from their own farm, and staff who go out of their way to help. Portions are small and prices steep, but those who understand what they're paying for find it worth the visit. The QR code ordering system occasionally frustrates, and parking can be tight in Taman Paramount's corner location. Solo diners report occasional seating frustration during busy hours. Nine matcha varieties let you explore different flavor profiles, from smooth and mellow (Ryo, RM16) to umami-rich (Yu, RM22). Three rice dishes anchor the menu, with hojicha waffle and parfaits as sweet options. Staff recover quickly from mistakes and remember regulars. The small, beautifully decorated space feels more like a Kyoto tea house than a shopping mall cafe, though it means capacity limits during peak times.
