Liu’s Café was inspired by coffee shops and eateries in Hong Kong, Taipei, and Shanghai, where arches and rustic divided-lite windows set the tone. Vintage brass fixtures and clean lines balanced old and new, with dark walnut paired against honed Carrara.

An arched doorway marks the dining room, while a custom window offers a glimpse into the bakery. What was imagined as a quiet spot for tea has become a destination, with lines now stretching down the block.
