Una Buona Settimana

Una Buona Settimana…a nice week. And it was a nice week at Via Vadi. Everything went smoothly all the way around. The shop is buzzing with customers and we are already seeing ‘regulars’. How great is that? Its fun getting to know everyone and remembering what they drink; who wants extra shots; who likes a real cup and who is going to have theirs on the go!

I’ve gotten to see old friends who have stopped that heard about my new caffe’. The fire department rolled up on Sunday morning with the big ladder truck. Several folks thought I had already set my new place on fire! I look at it this way they attracted some real attention and made people stop in to see what was up. Hey I’ll take new customers any way I can get them…short of the fire of course!

I had new treats in the caffe’ this week. The Tiramisu and the Cannoli are big hits along with the little baci di damas (ask me what I call them when you stop in)! As time goes on there will be more great Italian treats here.

I have finally set the opening hours for the caffe’:

Monday –Friday 6AM
Saturday 7AM
Sunday 9AM


Closing is sort of a hit and miss at this point. So long as there are folks here I will stay open. Ideally I would like to close by 4PM, but will stay as long as folks need coffee. Stop in and have a cup and taste a treat or two. See you soon!
Ciao
Maria
