Yes, it sure has been forever since we last blogged.
A few things have popped up recently, and they've made us happy. The first & major one is:
We became part of the Los Angeles Green Business Program and got our certification as a Green Business - we're committed to recycling, water & resource conservation and maintaining a nox-toxic environment at Javista.

We were presented with our certificate along with other green business participants at the end of April at City Hall by Mayor Garcetti & his green team - from the City & LACC, who administers the program.
Mayor Garcetti gave an impassioned speech about running clean businesses - he really is quite the speaker.
And here's our Green Certificate, courtesy of the City.
Other delicious info: we've been mixing up some popular specialty holiday drinks - for Easter 4/20, and just recently for Cinco de Mayo.
Trippy & very olé. ; ]
And last but never least, finally: we've become a part of the Hollywood Fringe Festival - we'll be a presenting venue for accomplished magician Siegfried Tieber in his show "Nothing Up the Sleeve: A Close-up Magic Show".

The Festival runs from June 12th - June 29th, and he'll be performing at the café evenings 3 nights a week for the run of the Festival. Siegfried is originally from Ecuador, and has performed at L.A.'s Magic Castle.
