Comfort Food + Gourmet Items + Differently-abled Staff = Whole lot of awesome!! This is what I felt upon visiting this cool café. I’m very happy that my very first blog post on food/resto will be about this café. You’ll feel the positive energy upon entering the place, maybe because of all the smiles and happy greetings from their extraordinary staff. I was so amazed that they have established this kind of café helping young adults with autism, and surprisingly these young adults are very good at what they’re doing. I never thought that I’d be experiencing inexpressible joy just by staying for a while, eat, appreciate and thinking of featuring this café on my blog while I was there… And so here it goes…
