Mount Austin’s Matcha Gem 🍵🇲🇾

Slow Day Cafe

Recommended by my friend to try out this cosy little matcha cafe situated at the 2nd-storey of a building in Mount Austin, Johor Bahru. A very popular place that most Singaporeans know about.

From their Signature Strawberry Matcha Latte to that ultra-smooth and rich Pistachio Matcha Cake, every sip and bite was pure satisfaction! 🍵 The flavours were perfectly balanced, especially their Pistachio Matcha Cake, not too sweet and not bitter at all.

Plus, the cafe’s calming “Slow Day” vibes, exactly what you need for a chill afternoon with friends. Soft lighting, warm wooden trays, flower gold spoons and the type of ambience that tells you to breathe, relax and enjoy your dessert at your own pace. 😌

If you’re cafe hopping in JB, this place needs to be on your list. 10/10 for aesthetics + flavour + vibes!

📍Slow Day Cafe, No. 2-01, Taman Mount Austin, 81100 Johor Bahru, Johor Darul Ta'zim, Malaysia
