When i met sammy, i worked in a small take away cafe and dellion in nightsbridge called baker and spice. He was running the kitchen there, making the most incredible food. We spokefor five ten minutes about just where do you live, what do you do, et cetera before we realized that we could actually speak hebrew each other. It was kind of insane how similar we were, and how unbelievable it was that we ha actually never met up until that moment.
