In the Zuoying Jianye New Village in Kaohsiung, there’s a studio specializing in floral design. But come the weekend, the workshop transforms into a teahouse serving creative desserts alongside beautiful arrangements. Three friends opened it together, combining their interests to create a unique studio that blends Taiwanese tea, Japanese sweets, and botanical design.
Stepping into this vintage shop is like entering a miniature garden, steeped in an elegant stillness. Here, visitors can appreciate beautiful botanical arrangements alongside their afternoon tea.
Japanese pastry shells are filled with red bean paste and decorated with a Korean-style flower, piped by hand to look like a delicate pink rose is blooming on top of the cookie. It’s served with a tea made of flower petal jam and dried rose. All these creative concoctions are handmade by the owner.

For the rose petal jam, we let customers steep entire flowers in the jam-infused tea. We collaborate with an organic rose grower in Taichung.

Likes the flowers
I think it’s very special. You don’t often see flowers served with food and drinks like this. The entire arrangement is beautiful.
Located in Jianye New Village in Kaohsiung’s Zuoying District, every corner of this teahouse was carefully considered by the owner. Even the weathered brick walls outside the vintage wooden windows are enlivened with floral embellishments.
Teahouse owner
We’re three good friends who merged our interests in botanical arrangement and desserts and decided to collaborate. Since this area in Zuoying’s Jianye New Village doesn’t have much foot traffic, we thought about how to entice people to come in.
During the week, floral arranging workshops are taught here. But on the weekend, this old military dependent building transforms into a hidden teahouse, attracting people from far and wide with a love for both plants and desserts.
