While walking around my neighbourhood one morning, I spotted an interesting looking coffee shop with a European feel. Upon entering I was delighted by the array of delicious products such as cookies, granola and different types of tea. Asking for a suggestion, I motioned to the charming young man behind the counter. He was extremely good looking and wearing a trilby hat, he was polite, friendly and efficient. He spoke with such a genuine passion and enthusiasm for the coffee shop. I discovered that, Haven’s Kitchen you can not only stop by for a scrumptious cake and coffee, you can also read from an array of cookery books or even take part in a cooking lessons.
Instantly, this became my favourite place for morning coffee. Before leaving that day, I asked Ridwan if he’d be interesting in doing some pictures for FTWWL. Of course, he was delighted to talk with me as well as wear some of our amazing scarves.
My first encounter was better than expected yet I couldn’t help but return soon after our first meeting to buy a cooking lesson and take in the warming aroma and welcoming atmosphere once again.
