A Soft Opening
Attention Shoppers
In this extremely short episode of Attention Shoppers, we talk just long enough to set the stage for a real episode.
info_outlineThis week, Eve and Tim talk to Rica Sunga-Kwan, whose Churn Urban Creamery is one of San Francisco's most popular dessert pop-ups.
Born in Manilla, Rica moved to the Sunset District of SF when she was ten years old. After a decade working in the New York fashion and design industry, she returned home and started making ice cream. Now Churn is working to open a brick-and-mortar location in an old San Francisco movie theater. She stopped by Avenues Dry Goods on her way to drop off a check with her new space's architect to talk about how her multi-cultural background has informed her business, her transition from design to food, and running a business with her husband.
