We know you probably come for our mochi donuts, and we LOVE that and thank you so much for it 💕
But the real ones know… we started as a cute little brunch spot. Our first and only full restaurant was one that we poured our whole hearts into, not knowing what would come out of it. Our experiences living in Japan manifested as unique creative flavours in our menu. Our furniture was a mix and match of what we could find on a great deal. Isabella, our daughter’s, first core memories of Canada were in that restaurant. Word spread fast and we found ourselves featured in newspapers and blogs (all organically, too!). It was there in our original brunch restaurant that we dreamed of everything Isabella’s, our cafes, are today.
Alongside our mochi donuts, we’ve been creating and curating a savoury buns menu that brings a little bit of our story from way back when into our current offerings. We may go sweet but we sure know how to do savoury REALLY really well, too. Slide through to see what we’ve been working on :)
Here is our Korean Garlic Cream Cheese Bun.
Our Ube (Pronounced: OOO-Beh) Pork Adobo bun
Longanisa bun with filipino chorizo and banana ketchup
Japanese veg curry
Pepperoni pizza cuties!
