Sakura Blossoms
Can't get enough of sakura, or missed out on flying to Japan to see them? habitat by honestbee has transformed its space into a cherry blossom garden till May 20. It may not be the same thing, but it comes close, especially when it has elements that bring to mind the canopy of blooms in Shinjuku Gyoen and Yoyogi Park, with pavilions adorned with the flowers.
Sit under the pavilions and dig into a Sakura Ebi Capellini, inspired by the colours of the pink and white blooms; sip on Sakura Yuzu Green tea; and end the meal with a Sakura Special Pancake that's served with chantilly cream, green tea cremeux, red bean and white peach.
On May 5 and 19, there will also be workshops on wagashi and mochi-making. Kimonos are optional.
