The weeks-old Liu’s Cafe (@liuscafe) is a surprising new daytime option for Koreatown and comes from the team behind the modern Korean restaurant Tokki. Instead of cooking Korean food, however, partners Alex Park, Patrick Liu, John Kim, and Eddie Lee have assembled a Hong Kong and Taiwanese-style cafe menu along Sixth Street in Koreatown, a few doors down from Kinn and Here’s Looking at You. The cozy, well-appointed space offers a walk-up counter and a chic dining area with vintage posters. The menu and overall design come from multiple visits to Hong Kong and Taiwan that inspired the partners’ love of these dishes and daytime cafes.

For the menu, the team hired Isabell Manibusan, previously pastry chef at Maude, to build a Hong Kong-style set of pineapple buns, cream buns, egg tarts, cookies, and bread to accompany the savory dishes. They also consulted with chef Lareine Ko, who helped develop traditional recipes that one would find in Taiwanese and Hong Kong cafes.
