Caracara Matcha Specialty & Bistro

Caracara ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌​‌​​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​⁠Matcha Specialty & Bistro is a Japanese-style matcha cafe tucked inside the Rabiang Khiang Na restaurant in Nong Taphan, Ban Khai, Rayong. There is no cafe sign out front, so visitors walk through the restaurant to reach it. The calm, air-conditioned interior has tatami seating, bookshelves and board games, and part of it is a glass-walled room for the cafe's British Shorthair cats. Visitors pay an entry fee to go in and play with the cats, take their shoes off, wear socks and wash their hands first, and are asked to stay quiet and gentle. The speciality is ceremonial-grade matcha in many styles, including a melon-scented moromi, alongside homemade bakery items, donuts, shio pan and a small brunch menu. Parking is in front of the restaurant.
