3.) COFFEE:NOWHERE

NO WHERE… There is a saying that goes “Once I was lost but now I am found”. Our journey of excellence began from nowhere. It was bleak and void. One day, over a cup of coffee in a now defunct coffee gallery, the idea of creating a unique cafe experience sprang into mind – an experience that will continue to last even after the cafe may be long gone. That idea brought us somewhere and today we are now here!
