\n\t\u201cWhen I was a student, every kuna was important to me and many times I only had a few coins in my pocket. Since it is an important part of studying and socializing with colleagues, it also meant having coffees in nearby caf\u00e9s. Two colleagues and I liked to go to a caf\u00e9 close to university that had a nice waiter. After a few times we became friends and regularly joked around and talked. He shared our fears before exams, our worries after exams and he encouraged us when we didn\u2019t feel like studying. He also \u2018forced\u2019 us to go home when he saw that we had work to do. Although it\u2019s been about ten years since I no longer go to this caf\u00e9 because I graduated from university, I often remember him and think about how much that man actually helped us. I think he wasn\u2019t even aware of it, but in some of those moments his word meant more to us than anything, because we weren\u2019t just another customer to him. I thank him for that. We never managed to thank him for that and I don\u2019t even know where I would find him now, so I hope that in the meantime he has also experienced something this nice.<\/em>\u201c\u00a0Martina Maksimkov<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n\t\n\t\t\t

\n\t\u201cIt takes skill to make a good espresso, but it\u2019s an art form to know how to deal with people. The main reason why I have coffee at my favorite caf\u00e9 is the good coffee and the atmosphere, but I also keep returning because of the excellent waiter who loves his job and you can see and feel it! When he sees that I\u2019m sad, he always makes a joke to make me laugh, when I\u2019m upset or busy, he is discreet and brings me my drink without any questions. If it weren\u2019t for our waiters, baristas or bartenders, our therapists, psychologists and psychiatrists, the world would be an ugly place and people would be alienated and alone. Unfortunately, many are not aware that your job (if you want to be good at it) is very difficult and exhausting because, as they say, a hundred different people have a hundred different diagnoses. Good luck!\u201d<\/em>\u00a0Mirjana Herceg<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n\t\n\t\t\t

\n\t\u201cFilip Lipnik is the person because of whom I decided to start working in hospitality and he had such an influence on me when I first had the opportunity to watch him work behind the bar at Swanky Monkey Garden. It was nice to watch him because he made cocktails quickly and readily, without unnecessary movements. He simultaneously made cocktails for his guests at the bar and for the waiters who carried them to other guests at the tables. But what impressed me the most was that all this time he also talked to the guests at the bar. You could see that they were having fun and that they felt at home because Filip gave them that feeling with his attention and vibe. The cocktails were, of course, phenomenal. At that point I was washing glasses for Filip Lipnik, but that day I decided that I wanted to give other people that same feeling when they come to my \u2018home\u2019.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0Ante \u010cubri\u0107<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":2403,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2776","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nCongratulations to the lucky winners of a Raise the Bar gift package!
