Cafe de Leche

Part three of the ‘Readers Write-in Article Ideas Trilogy’ is thanks in part to Karen B. who tipped us off to a new cafe that had leased the space at 5000 York Blvd. back in May. While I don’t really have any information to give, the sign in the shop’s window promises a summer opening but based on the emptiness of the interior, and the fact that no one was working on it on a Tuesday morning, I’d be pleasantly surprised if this place opens in the next two months. Since I can’t give you anything firm, let’s play have fun making speculations based on a hip picture of a hummingbird. I’m hoping for something a little more exotic than just a straight coffee and pastry type of place. A small but good breakfast menu is a must with hopefully at least a few items for lunch. I’d hope for a few tables on the sidewalk, and wouldn’t roof access be cool? Think a quaint version of Buster’s or Heirloom Bakery in South Pasadena. Now if something other than Marty’s would just move in on the other side of York, we’d have a runaway renaissance on York.

It sure is funny how life runs full circle in some business. To the folks in the know, MAN aka the Noureiga bldg did house a resturant in the same location back in the 60′ (now I feel old) OK, i recall a resturant being in that location in my “very” early youth. Pre-Adelocent

My dog and I can’t wait for the place to open! I won’t have to drive to Swork!

It’s a new Nicaraguan owned Coffee Shop. Let’s hope they’re dog friendly and also serve pitaya drinks ! aka dragonfruit drink.
