The popular bakery chain, nicknamed the "Starbucks of Taiwan," will officially celebrate the grand opening of the 9750 Bellaire Blvd. location Friday.

The store's hot and fresh approach has garnered a cult-like following among Asian palates.

The café consistently offers a wide array of breads, cakes and teas, all under the expert hands of master chefs.

As their name suggests, they serve their coffee at 85 degrees Celsius.

Patrons grab a set of tongs and begin walking from one Asian-European inspired pastry to the next. Their choices are placed neatly on a tray and are boxed as they make their way to the register. The bakery also has an extensive offering of pre-made and made-to-order layer and roll cakes for any special occasion.
