What's going on when a grungy looking group of men walk into the Wild Garden? Well, the garden is wild so aaanything could happen ;) but this time what happened was SoffaTV interviewed Gusto in candlelight, aw! Interview can be seen ---> here <---- there.

Smalltribe

Enjoy an evening of diverse ethnic culture and music this Friday (tomorrow!) with Smalltribe as they perform songs at the cafe in French, Spanish and English. Smalltribe is a duo composed by Yovan Nagwetch (Native French Canadian) & Carlos Alexis (Nicaraguan) who play native folk & light acoustic rock music. They sing about the life of their people as well as the reality of their countries.

Kallio is blooming with activities once again for the Kallio Kukkii festival which kick starts tomorrow! Playtime for Smalltribe will be at about 7pm so come sit down for a cup of your choice of refreshment and enjoy :)

5,6,7,8...

Yesterday a very talkative little girl at the cafe told me her favorite number is seven even though she's turning six in just a few days. Turns out we have the same birthday but I didn't dare tell her I'm happy to be dropping off the number 7 from my age because I much prefer the number 8.

She drew her family in our guest book and decided she's almost 6 years old so it's OK for her to write that she's 6yrs. I hope you have a great party and despite your worries, I'm sure your jeans will still fit tomorrow, even though you'll be older then :)

A Few Years Back...

The change of the month is always a little hectic, so here is a quick blast from the past:


Katja and I were obviously planning our future cafe in this picture! Notice the Duplo's on a cruise liner on the left? They are the customers coming to visit us all the way from Sweden ;)

Utopia

Tonight our entire café & shop crew will be heading to Monoteatteri to see the Utopia performance, featuring Thomas from Villipuutarha!

Thomas has been extremely busy working at the cafe and heading to rehearsals for the past few months so it will be great to see the final product. Shows run until the 2nd of May, go see!

Le Petit Paris

People have said our little corner in Kallio reminds them of Paris (amongst other cities and places), so Pia LPR made special Paris greeting cards just for us, they're precious! Merci!

Bunny In The Window

Listening to Patti Page's "How Much Is That Doggy In The Window".. cute song, but the lyrics should be altered a little e.g. "I do want a bunny and a kitty!" ;)

Many Onneli animals have already found new homes so some new ones moved in, come meet them! :)
