Some of the people working there are as old as the establishment and have been working for 50 plus years. What’s so sad is that the building which the restaurant is located in was sold back in May and now they are forced to close and relocate.

How cool and minimal is this! It doesn’t help that it’s also beautifully designed. My wish list for kitchen and table gadgets is increasing by the day!

My friend Fatmah from F.Scribbles along with a group of her friends are independently collecting donations to help out as many people in need as possible. The donations will be shared, regardless of race, citizenship and religion.
Last year they managed to give out 100 bags of food. You can help out by giving food or getting discounts, boxes, or even helping them deliver.
Donations will be accepted until 9th June 2012.
How cool is this grill? You can barbecue on the go!
Built for carrying with one hand, the fold–flat design ensures you’ll barely notice your grill alongside other necessary outdoor items.
