Jamboo has been flooded with questions of how the hole-in-the-wall concept came to be. Well, here is a bit of a background story.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. In order to ensure the operation of said cafe, they had to be creative. Everything was unclear at the moment, the MCO. They had to figure out a way to serve their customers without coming in contact with anyone physically.
How about serving food through a wall? No contacts and minimal interaction checked.

Priding itself as the world’s number 1 customizable lei cha concept store, Jamboo focuses on preparing lei cha, a traditional Hakka cuisine made with at least 11 ingredients and based on vegetables. The one remarkable trait that differs them from other restaurants that serve lei cha is that they allow customers to personalize their orders in accordance with their preferences.
