Meet the speaker: Emma Litkie, Co-Owner & Head Chef @streetkitchencafe Head chef and owner Emma Litkie hails from the sunny shores of South Africa where she earned her chef strips at SACA, the famous culinary association. A classic dream story of a husband and wife team who started with a small tent at Rippone marke6 dishing out delicious meals for hungry passerby's, grew into their own catering company operating out of Gland and in 2018 they launched the centrally located Street Kitchen Cafe on Rue Centrale with a feisty 🔥menu and cheeky interior perfectly encompassing the duo.
Meet the speakers: Davide Merola and Steeve Gerotto, Co-Founders @capassecreme.ch @ecolehotelieredelausanne alumni and good friends, Davide & Steeve had been set on the idea of opening a cafe since they discovered their passion for coffee whilst working in London. When the time came to return to Switzerland, the duo managed to find the perfect little spot in sous-gare and launched their mini-cafe, Ça Passe Crème, which has quickly grown to become one of the most favoured spots for a quick espresso or a laidback latte ☕ in Lausanne.
