Converting old houses for new uses has been a trend in recent years. To revive the charm of the past, many entrepreneurs and artists are dedicated to renovating these aged buildings, presenting them with a brand-new retro look. Located on Taipei’s Dihua Street, the Modern Mode & Modern Mode Café is a nearly century-old Japanese-style house that retains its vintage form while transforming into a café with a French flair. The Modern Mode Café showcases antique jewelry collected from around the world, which is redesigned and displayed with a modern touch. Next time you visit Dihua Street, why not stop by the café to enjoy classic French cuisine, coffee, and exquisitely handmade desserts?
