This gallery collects Asian cuisine displays photographed in front of working restaurants — Chinese, Korean, Indian and pan-Asian windows. Every photo is a real shopfront, not a studio set-up.

Look at what each window does rather than at what it sells: how dishes are grouped, where the light falls, which plate sits at eye level, how a whole set is read in three seconds by someone walking past.

Japanese windows are collected separately in our Japanese restaurant window displays. Use both galleries as a source of ideas for your own shopfront — the techniques carry over between cuisines even when the menu does not.

Chinese restaurant window display standing beside the entrance with ramen, gyoza and beer replicas
This Chinese restaurant window display stands directly in front of the door. A passer-by who steps up to read the menu is already at the entrance, with no distance left for second thoughts — and walks straight in.
Restaurant window display lighting reaching only the upper shelves of a Chinese food case
This Chinese restaurant used a stand in front of the case to fit the whole menu. Restaurant window display lighting has to be arranged so that the light reaches every replica. Unlit food looks less appetising and gets ordered less often.
Asian cuisine displays grouped in an Indian restaurant window with naan, curry and thali
An Indian restaurant window display with replicas arranged in groups, so a passer-by can find the category they need faster. The kids’ menu stands on the bottom shelf, where a child of any age can see it clearly.
