Le Cafe Michi review

Le Cafe Michi

Location: 1802 Pharmacy Avenue, Scarborough
Phone: (416) 490 9688
Hours: Mondays CLOSED,, Tuesdays - Saturdays 11:30AM - 9:00PM,, Sundays 11:30AM - 8:00PM

This is the front page of the menu. There's a little note on the top saying: "Due to sudden increase in the cost of eel because of a worldwide shortage. We unfortunately have to raise some of our prices. Your understanding in this matter is greatly appreciated."

- I like how they are being so honest with their price raised and explain the situation to the customer


Other than the menu, they also give you a photo album of the food!! So nice!! =D


Toro Sushi


Chyo-chin Bento $23.95
- it serves with Green Tea or Coffee, Salad, and a slice of cake
- the coffee is refillable
- the salad in this combo is Japanese Seaweed Salad
- I LOVE the bento! It's so cute, it has 3 boxes:
1. first box is Karaage (Deep Fry Chicken): it's so good!!!
2. second box is assorted sashimi: sashimi are so fresh & yummy!!!
3. third box is Unajyu (eel) on sushi rice: LOVE the sushi rice, it's so good!


 Cafe Au Lait Chirashi Sushi $35.95
- Assorted sashimi on sushi rice
- it serves with Green Tea or Coffee, Salad, and a slice of cake
- the green tea is refillable (I think I had 4 cups of green tea)
- So many types of Sashimi!: red tuna, salmon, red snapper, scallop, squid, octopus, shrimp, sweet shrimp, flying fish roe, eel
- the sashimi are SO FRESH! SO YUMMY!!! =D
- the sweet shrimp is SO BIG! biggest sweet shrimp I have seen so far!
- this Chirashi Sushi is SO AWESOME! So many surprises in it! Under the sashimi, there's a big sheet of egg, AND under the egg, there's eel inside the sushi rice!! =D


 (left) Japanese Sake Cake, (right) Green Tea & Red Bean Cake
- these cakes come with the meal
- the Japanese Sake Cake is pretty good! It's chocolate flavour
- the Green Tea Cake is amazing! SO GOOD!


Environment:
- the place is so nice, tidy & clean.
- there are 2 sections: one is like a cafe (with cake display cases), one is with a sushi bar
- there are some handmade dolls and accessories for sale on top of the cake display cases

Service:
- EXCELLENT SERVICE! =) servers are so friendly & nice! very polite too!
- the sushi chef asked us if the food is good, the server kept refilling our coffee and green tea, said "thank you" when we ordered food, and said "your welcome" when I said thank you when he refilled my tea

Food:
- SO YUMMY! HIGHLY recommended this place! =D
- the food might take awhile to arrive but it's definitely worth waiting!!!
- the price is good! $20ish - 30ish you get coffee/green tea, salad, main dish and a slice of cake! =)

    1. by locals, do you mean the people in the neighborhood?
      If you meant neighborhood, i think people there are from everywhere. I heard alot of people came from far far away.

      The owner n servers are japanese, i think i heard them speaking japanese.

    1. the names of the cakes are under the picture of the cake ah.
      they are both really good!

      - the sake cake is chocolate flavour, is sweeter than the greentea cake.

      - the green tea cake has red bean in it. and the green tea flavour is strong enough, good!! it's not TOO sweet so it's good for people like me =)

  7. 有冇人睇得明Menu下半段講乜嘢?

    由 *We do not take reservation for cake..........there will be a charge.

    我英文麻麻, 請指教.

  8. "we do not take reservation for cake and beverage only, and we do not serve only cake and beverage only during the peak time of lunch, and after 5:00PM"

    如果你淨係想去食蛋糕+飲野無得book枱.(午餐繁忙時間同埋下午5時後)唔可以淨係黎食蛋糕+飲野.
    姐係呢段時間一定係要黎食餐MEAL咁解.
    __________________________________________

    "Our course menu and lunch dinner specials include coffee or green tea only. If you share the drink and had both, there will be a charge"
    佢地既course menu同午餐晚餐既menu都有包野飲(咖啡或者綠茶) 如果你同你同行既人分野飲(姐係一個叫綠茶一個叫咖啡, 你地唔可以分黎飲, 我諗因為係不停refill.有D人可能飲完一杯綠茶就無飲, 點知另一個叫咖啡既又想飲佢D綠茶就唔得囉, 可能驚佢好似幫佢飲夠本咁)

    不過我諗唔會好嚴既, 如果你想試下你朋友本野, 你飲一啖仔, 佢唔會charge你既!
