Sugar Rush: Genmaicha Cheesecake at Tafu

Delicate tea based nibbles and drinks with a Japanese flair are the staples at Tafu in Midtown. Chocolate-miso cakes, matcha lattes, mochi creams with sweet beans, and financiers all please the tongue, but if you are going to choose only one, dive for the nutty and just a tad sweet Genmaicha Cheesecake. $4.50 doesn't stretch too far for the long and narrow cheesecake sweet, infused with a blend of green tea and roasted brown rice... but shouldn't you be going for quality over quantity anyways?
