Overdoughs + Elait, under Caravan Food Group Inc., held a two-day grand opening to celebrate the launch of their second cafe in Metro Manila, located at the Ground Level of Circuit Lane at Ayala Malls Circuit in Makati City.
The cafe has a chic and modern design, making it comfortable space to spend time in with good food.
The café, with its aesthetic looks and cozy feeling, will surely make people relaxed and enjoy its product offerings.
The celebration on the first day, May 3, began with a lunch gathering hosted by the Overdoughs Cafe for guests with food items from the cafe’s menu.
This included a variety of pizza, rice meals, pasta, pastries, and desserts. The new items of the cafe were introduced namely, OD Chicken Rice Meals, OD Pizza in square cuts, OD Pasta and their varieties. A special table was also set up to showcase all food and drinks items the cafe has to offer.
Content creators and instructors specializing in deaf education attending the grand opening.
With their advocacy of bridging gaps, and breaking barriers with the deaf, a private session was hosted by the brand through their long-time running seminar, #TheGoODSign, with instructors from their partner school, the De La Salle – College of Saint Benilde School of Deaf and Applied Studies.
Attendees were composed of content creators like Jazper Tiongson, @SaanTayoPunta team, Mom Elvie Pascual, company employees and much more.
They were taught basic sign language, including the alphabet and phrases for communication.
Through this deaf awareness seminar, participants were made aware how to communicate and interact with the Deaf. The session also highlighted the inclusion of deaf people in society proving they are just as capable of employment, and they can enjoy activities just as much.
During the second day of the grand opening, the brand formally cut the ribbon which was led by Fred Reyes, Francis Reyes, and Joseph Reyes, the company’s chairman, chief executive, and chief operating officer, respectively.
The day was also graced with a formal blessing of the café on May 4, in ode to Our Lady Queen of the Apostles led by Fr. Benjie Jugueta from the Holy Cross Parish Makati.
During his remarks, he openly said “ang mga mahilig magkape, masarap magmahal”.
These words made a mark to everyone, especially to the employees as they share a common love for food and coffee and a common goal in providing good food and coffee for their customers.
The two-day grand opening was indeed remarkable for everyone who attended as they had the chance to share similar passionate goals and get to experience inclusivity in diversity. This will be the type of event the brand will be looking forward to hosting again.
