Calle Ocho, located in Causeway Bay, is a restaurant that specializes in traditional Spanish cuisine. The interior design of the restaurant draws inspiration from Madrid de Los Austrias neighbourhood. The street number of the restaurant is 8, and "Ocho" means "eight" in Spanish, hence the name.

The blue and white tile craftsmanship has a long history in Spain, and it is used to decorate the paintings inside and outside the restaurant, as well as the storefront signs. Artist Elsa Jeandedieu Studio collaborated with ASA to redecorate a street corner in Causeway Bay into a Spanish alley. This work is art is not to be missed for either the eyes or the camera.

The tiles is hand-painted and fired by our artisan craftsmen. Each tile is individually painted by hand and fired at a temperature of over 1000°C. This process ensures that the hand-painted artwork is perfectly presented and that the tiles maintain their bright colors without fading or aging easily, even in the face of outdoor exposure to sunlight and rain.

The designer has incorporated traditional Spanish architecture and craftsmanship styles, not only showcasing the rich cultural charm of Spain but also creating an ambiance that transports diners to Madrid, where they can enjoy authentic and traditional cuisine. Every corner of the restaurant is filled with the essence of Spain, with elements such as ceramic tiles, ironwork, and wooden decorations. The walls are adorned with musical instruments and photographs, allowing diners to appreciate artwork from any position they are in.

On holidays, we always desire to get away from the hustle and bustle of the metropolis, chilling out at a peaceful place. The fourth branch of Bakehouse is hence located in Stanley, a slow-paced coastal village. Its interior design aims to create a leisure decorating style.
