Today we’re celebrating the grand opening of Vince Vu’s Anh Ơi Bake Shop 🍪🎉🪩 Vince’s space amplifies other Asian bakeries and is a celebration of third-culture joy, built on the idea that when Asian American bakers come together, everyone eats better. Vince opened Anh Ơi Bake Shop to tell a third-culture story through food, blending the Vietnamese flavors he grew up with and the American desserts that shaped him. His parents were refugees from Vietnam and longtime entrepreneurs, and the shop carries that same spirit of building something new while staying connected to where you came from. Located in the former Osami’s Barbershop in Seattle’s Japantown, the rotating menu features oversized cookies in flavors like Vietnamese Coffee with White Chocolate, Fried Banana, and Thai Tea Persimmon, plus goods from other local Asian American bakers. Join us in congratulating and celebrating Vince and @ohanhoi ❤️ Slide 1: Vince, courtesy of @shmolikesdankfood Slide 2: Laura and Vince Slide 3: Laura with Tran Pham and Nhat Huynh of @aufe.coffee (popping up inside Anh Ơi Bake Shop) #spendlikeitmatters #seattlefoodie #beintentional #AsianAmericanBakers #SeattleJapantown

🐚🐙 Nudibranch Coffee is bringing some much needed Thai coffee culture warmth to Capitol Hill, named after Emily’s favorite PNW tide pool creature. We sat down with Emily to hear how growing up Thai American, summers spent tide pooling at Golden Gardens, and a lifelong dream led her to open Nudibranch Coffee earlier this year. Read the blog (linked in our bio) to learn more about: 🪴 The back room that doubles as a study space by day and community event space three nights a week 🍚 The full story behind the Mango Sticky Rice Matcha and the Bangkok Cherry Latte with Milo powder 🫂 Emily’s goal to make Nudibranch full of whimsy (no shade, but you won’t find blank white walls or the Seattle freeze here) 🗺️ You can find Emily and the Nudibranch crew in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood! ••• #spendlikeitmatters #beintentional #seattlesmallbusiness #capitolhillseattle #seattlecoffee
