Sydney’s weather has been changing so fast lately, freezing a few days ago, and now it’s scorching like summer. We took the kids to Manly Beach for a vacation vibe and were lucky to stumble upon this gem, which might just be the best Japanese soufflé café (Tokyo Cloud) in Sydney.
From the ferry terminal, just cross the street, turn right, and walk a few shops down. The street is lined with cafés and small eateries. While looking for food, our kids were drawn to the soufflé poster at the entrance.
The café has an Instagram-worthy vibe, perfect for taking photos. The menu is designed in a cute, cartoon style. While the main dishes are limited, they all look beautifully presented in the photos. This spot specialises in both savoury and sweet soufflés, along with several unique coffee blends. The soufflé recipe is said to be a secret formula the owner specially bought from Japan!
We started with a mango soufflé to try it out, but it was so good we were fighting over bites with the kids! We ended up ordering a chocolate one as well, which was also delicious. The soufflé was light and fluffy, not overly sweet, and the mango sauce added a perfect summery touch.
For the main, we had a rice bowl, which was fresh and delicious with a distinct Japanese style. The presentation was beautiful and satisfying. The menu design also stood out with unique illustrations, and we ordered a few non-alcoholic cold drinks that looked like cocktails but were kid-friendly.
After our meal, we headed to the beach for some fun, a completely different vibe from home, giving us a mini day-trip experience.
If you’re planning a beach day soon, definitely stop by this café for a taste.
