This afternoon I spent a couple of hours with Laleh, who has a penchant for Japanese sweets, at Tombo in South Kensington. It's a Japanese cafe and deli. We had a tea and cake combo for £4.50 but there are larger dishes of salads and noodles, and gyoza dumplings too. Lots of customers were picking up their dinner for later on.
My delicately flavoured green tea and chocolate gateaux was nice and moist. And the genmai tea with the nutty flavoured green tea (from the roasted brown rice) was a good choice from the extensive selection.
It's a lovely, peaceful find for this part of town.
