Lola Carol
Mona and Sammy are two Filipino-American sisters with a dream from their mom, Carol. Now that Carol is a grandma (Lola), we want to preserve our culture for our kids, and fulfill her dream of opening a cafe that serves her recipes and great coffee.
Lola Carol used to take them to Cebu City as children where they learned Bisaya, family values, and their love for Filipino food.
