Some Cafe Updates

Posted August 6th, 2008 at 4:28 pm by Tom

With the start of school in only a couple of weeks I am running out of summer…so I am going to put several updates on one page.

* New Menu: Our new menu is up and running. Dean and Jan took off some of the items that were not selling and added some new items, but you should come in to check out the new menus…because they have a look new too.. but if you want to see new items you can look on the MENU page.

* Going GREEN: Yes, I run the environmental center for St. Paul Public Schools and am currently helping Humboldt Jr. HS become an environmentally focused school. So, this summer the WRC has looked into ways to become more green. Here is our start: our plastic to go cups are 100% compostable (really) and our paper to go cups are Eco-Products. This means that they use 100% percent recycled paper. We are looking into curbside composting…coming soon from Eureka!

* Have you heard of espresso tea? We are now serving Red Espresso…find out more! It is the first tea espresso.
