Hara Hetta has found a permanent home at Katong Shopping Centre, marking its next chapter after building a loyal following through home-based orders and pop-ups. Hidden away in the basement, the cosy new café specialises in premium matcha and freshly baked shio pan, offering a quiet spot for those willing to venture off the beaten path.
The matcha menu showcases carefully sourced tea leaves from Uji, Japan, with each cup whisked to order. Choose between the rich, nutty Okumidori or the lighter, floral Samidori, while the standout Banana Pudding Matcha Latte ($7.90) combines premium matcha with real banana pudding instead of flavoured syrup for a creamy, indulgent twist. Freshly baked shio pan are available from $3, with flavours including original, nori, truffle, and garlic cream cheese.
Everything at Hara Hetta is made with care, from its handcrafted breads to its thoughtfully prepared matcha drinks. First-time visitors should pair the signature Original Shio Pan with the Banana Pudding Matcha Latte—a simple but satisfying combination of buttery, flaky bread and smooth, earthy matcha that perfectly captures the café’s comforting, handmade approach.
