What is a cafe?  A few children knew that it was a place to eat.  Pots and pans, table cloth and shells was the invitation to learn more.

Meet the cook.  He knew how to operate the handle to move the grill off the fire.

He busily filled his pots with ingredients found on the beach and
rotated them off and on the fire pit.

The cook’s assistant added some spices.
