The red room behind the case
The room
Red walls, arched niches with floral paper, brass lamps and white globes. The walls read TIRAMISU and PUFF PASTRY — the shop does not hide what it sells. Daylight from the storefront mixes with the case lighting.

The case
Egg tarts, puff pastries, cakes and tiramisu cups lined up under lit glass, each with a small name card. Behind them, rows of tins — round tiramisu, orange gift boxes — and paper bags waiting to go.

A day
Morning: fresh bakes, donut trays, bread still warm. Midday and afternoon: gift boxes carried out, pauses at the outdoor tables. Evening: the case thins out toward 10 PM — the shop runs all day, not just mornings.
