Erik Bruner-Yang’s minimalist space is many things: a place to linger over coffee and a heavenly cardamom bun; a handy gift stop for design books and candles; and a dining room and expansive courtyard with updated Taiwanese and Cambodian fare. Some plates—such as impossibly crispy caramel fried chicken and Gruyère dumplings with beef chili—have become decade-old classics. Round things out with Peking duck and pork shoulder bao platters, gingery soup dumplings, and a divine banana-matcha tiramisu. And yes, the sneakers on the wall that double as an art installation are for sale.
