Opened in 2022 by a Vietnamese proprietor, this yakitori restaurant (serving pieces of chicken grilled on skewers) has received mixed reviews.

This rental space has seen numerous businesses over the years. In 2021, it housed a Taiwanese fried chicken restaurant. From 2015 to 2020, a green tea cafe thrived here. Prior to that, from 2011 until 2014, a cosmetics store with a beauty salon enjoyed a successful run.

For me, the shop's teal siding and the stark contrast of the red sign were the main attractions. This vibrant combination caught my eye during this photo shoot!
