Quiet Soul Cafe is going to be taking over a cafe space Edmonton knows well, completely transforming before opening on Aug. 29.

This new cafe’s drink menu will be expanding upon Ark Cafe’s menu, offering a wide selection of coffee, unique teas, and new flavours and combinations to enjoy. You’ll also be able to munch on more desserts with new flavours and custom cakes made-to-order by the chef in-house.

Saito came to the Canadian culinary scene as a two-time, two-starred Michelin chef, having received two stars in both Toronto and New York. He curated another restaurant in Edmonton, MSSM, which is known for its traditional Edomae-style omakase experience. He will also be behind Yori, a new experience coming to downtown Edmonton.
This spot will bring along dishes like Japanese hambagu, Masaki Saito’s udon, and izakaya-style fare. Although the exact menu or dishes haven’t been released yet (aside from the popular udon), we can only expect excellence from this Michelin superstar and one of his new restaurants.
