The First Cafe Gathering

Chit Chaat Chai cafe hosted it's first monthly gathering and celebrated new beginnings on Navroz day.  The cafe hosted dinner for 7 people with traditional foods from the Sindh region, Iran & a wonderful Parsi drink. We had a great group of people who surrounded the table with wonderful energy. Thank you all for coming  and supporting the first dinner of this alternative cafe. And a BIG thank you to Yve who found 2 more chairs for the cafe. Now we can host a bigger group - bring on more foodies!

  1. Dear Chit Chaat Chai,
    this creation is certainly very special and so incredibly hospitable. Armando and I loved the company and the food Rumin created was delicious! The fish was so tender and the spices were to die for. Our absolute favorite part was the dessert first! ha!! We can live like that for sure....
    Thank you so very much for the invite! Armando and i had a fantastic meal and experience. Hope to do it again one day......
    Five stars Rumin! Cheers...

    Armando and Yve
