AMUCA

At AMUCA, the pleasure begins before you order: browse the display case, choose a donut and pair it with a drink. One visitor singled out the sugar-lemon donut for its refreshing citrus tang and gentle sweetness; another praised its lemon flavour and crisp texture. The menu notes that the donuts are made individually with Japanese-grown whole-wheat flour and cultured butter. They make a good choice when you want to savour the flavour of the ingredients.

For something sweeter, there is a set combining a donut and a mini parfait with chocolate brownie, served with a drink. The mini parfait is also available on its own, making it an option for a break with coffee or tea.

For a more substantial meal, choose between a simple sandwich with a thick omelette or one filled with bologna ham and melting cheese; both come with green salad. One visitor described the egg sandwich as a meal of toasted, buttered bread with wholegrain mustard, served with salad. Lunch also includes a house keema curry with green salad. Coarsely ground black pepper is free, and you can add a soft-boiled egg or cheese to customise it. The café-style Napolitan pasta comes with a choice of salad or rye bread, so you can pick what suits your mood.

Drinks include the Café au Lait Special, made with plenty of milk and a concentrated mocha blend, and masala chai, available hot or iced. Whether you fancy coffee after a meal or want to make a donut the star of your visit, there are options to suit the occasion.
