A Vietnamese restaurant serving authentic Vietnamese food in the north side of Chicago was looking to build a second restaurant in one of the older neighborhoods of Chicago. The client wanted a state of the art kitchen with the capacity to serve large events as well take-aways. Since the building was more than 50 years old and never had a restaurant, an intensive space planning was done to adapt to the new needs of the client. Some of the old brick walls were preserved and used a decor in the restaurant as well.
