| - Finally made it to Initium to try out their cotton candy latte... only to be told that they don't offer that anymore! Guess it will be something I will need to DIY at future parties... I was really looking forward to it!
Green Tea Latte - I know reviews below said it was amazing... but for me I would want it in a larger size and with more green tea flavour. I did appreciate that not-overly-sweetness of the drink. Also loved the latte art shapes we got. Origami heart and unicorn
Green Tea Mille Crepe Cake - lacked flavour, but I did like the blueberries, chocolate and graham crackers (even better if it was the smashed up kind - the ones served were of the thin dust-like kind.
Signature Initium Toast - tasty and flavourful (just a bit harder than expected), but great flavour with stuffed ham, and topped with cheese, bacon bits, onion, and seaweed! Yum!
We used the yelp discount 10% which helped but it still came to $31 for 2 people, and for a snack break, it seemed a bit overpriced. For the same price elsewhere, I got a sandwich, side soup and small (individual portioned) cake.
Ambience - it was nice that I didn't really smell the salon (until I got to the washroom area). Seating is a bit limited but it was a cozy comfortable cool vibe.
Service - it was good! No issues. They were chill about us taking a bunch of photos and we didn't feel rushed. It wasn't busy at the time we dined, but overall staff seems pretty chill and relaxed.
Overall, a good place to try out if you haven't been there yet. And a good place to go back when I am craving that toast again! :)
