Du Xin has taken the iconic television location Central Perk from Friends and turned it into the real thing.
This incredible replica is finely crafted to every last detail. Everything from the menu to the interior decor is captured. Xin even went further and made a copy of Joey's apartment next door.
As if that weren't enough, people who come into the cafe call Du Xin 'Gunther.' In case one is unfamiliar, Gunther was the character who owned Central Perk. Like Xin, he was hopelessly in love with Rachel.
If you couldn't tell, Xin is obsessed with Friends. This fan's obsession has created a wonderful tribute to the beloved sitcom Friends. Central Perk has now come to life and will surely become a neat tourist spot.
