The event featured long lines, prizes for customers, and traditional lion dancers in honor of the upcoming Lunar New Year.

With plans to expand further into the Bay Area, Junbi aims to serve Japanese drinks, soft serve, and more.
Dozens of people lined up Saturday for the grand opening of Junbi in Livermore, a popular matcha Southern California franchise. It's the first location in the Bay Area.
The shop had prizes for customers, and had lion dancers to celebrate the opening and welcome the upcoming Lunar New Year.
My husband and I always dreamed of owning our own business. When I was laid off 3 years ago from a tech company, we decided to pursue that dream.
Junbi has several locations in SoCal and Hawaii, and it is expected to open more Bay Area locations in San Francisco and Mountain View later this year.
