Yeah, guys. Well, you can actually call me like a part time employee. Today, I've been behind counters. We're whipping up food and today we are at the cafe, we just came back from Pete's Cafe along Fordham Road and I'm here, joined with manager Miley. Now, Miley, you told me that the cafe has been here for over 12 years. You worked here for over four. What can Bronx sites really expect when they walk in here? We got everything from coffees to paninis. We have cold cut sandwiches. We have a whole buffet section that no one really expects in the Bronx. But it's, you know, something that's worth trying. I love that. And you've got a little bit of a taste of what we can find here. Can you tell me what we've got here? So this is a Cuban panini. This has the roast pork which is peril and then turkey. A little bit of pickles and tomatoes. And then the one in the back is a capri. It's just something basic. Just a little bit of turkey tomatoes and lettuce. And you know, we're going to be a little healthy right now. You're going to whip up a strawberry banana smoothie with us. Go ahead and whip it up. Girl. Take a look. This is all made with fresh ingredients, guys. When we walked in, you could see those fresh fruits just laid out in the cafe here and we're actually going to get a live taste test here with Miley. She is going to it up here but that's the latest here at the Primavera Cafe News 12 the Bronx. Look at you. Taste it. Bring it back. That's easy to go. Look at that. Oh you know, you know you know your girls about to taste this. OK? You already know. All right. Mm mm. Yeah. All right Ellie. Thank you.
