Since opening their cafe in December 29th, 2014, in the heart of West Village. Chalait is the go to cafe for all your matcha, coffee, and light food needs. At Chalait, they are committed to bring the best quality of ingredients to serve you the best in food and beverages.
Last week, I have the chance to check out this cafe with my good friend, Jennifer Camejo, who is like myself lovers of avocados and green tea. After weeks of planning out this trip we are finally able to go and the place is a photographer heaven. Great interior and amazing natural light shining in the cafe. We are lucky enough to come at a not busy time and was able to sit on the marble table.
I ordered myself the match latte and avocado delight (toast, avocado, tomato, arugula/spinach, with a poach egg and pesto sauce drizzled on it) while Jennifer just got water and the classic avocado toast (toast, smashed avocado, radish, hard-boiled egg, and house vinaigrette).
Our first bites of the avocado toast was pure lust. The richness of the avocado paired with the toast is everything. Each bites is on point as the first. As for the matcha latte, it was my first time trying and I love it with each sip. I really did not now much about what matcha is and how it would taste like but it is divine. The taste of green tea and the cream was like drinking green tea ice cream. Everything was delicious. We will definitely will be making many trips back here.
