ABOUT US

Since 1990, when the shop on Nørre Voldgade opened, we have had a clear vision: to build a bridge between East and West.

We believe culture is best shared through food. Therefore we are always looking for authentic Asian goods of high quality and dedicate ourselves to guiding and inspiring within the Asian kitchen. Our ambition is to create experiences that go far beyond simply delivering a product. We want to spread understanding of Asian cooking through inspiring and good service – for us it's the heart of everything we do.

The business is currently run by the family's second-generation pair of siblings, who come from corporate backgrounds with entrepreneurship in their blood and endless passion for the work. We are a young company with big ambitions to grow and operate in conditions similar to a start-up.

Join us on our journey, where we daily bring East and West closer together – one bite, one experience and one story at a time.

We come from a wide range of nationalities and ethnicities despite our smaller size – we share the belief that we value good work and a passion for Asian cooking.
