Kitchen Layout & Equipment Retention:
Most of the original kitchen layout and equipment were retained, including the walk-in freezer, dishwasher, stoves, and exhaust system. A small viewing window was incorporated to allow visibility into the kitchen.

Finishing Materials & Furniture:
Some original furniture, such as sofas and dining tables, was retained. Most new furniture—including work cabinets, dining tables, booths, wall finishes, and custom-designed doors—was imported from overseas.

Construction Schedule Control:
As a non-chain restaurant, the owner independently managed furniture procurement and international shipping, which introduced scheduling uncertainties. The project manager adjusted construction sequencing in real time to prevent delays and maintain the overall project timeline.
