Her smile shines on the morning customers who enter the restaurant’s bar area for breakfast or an afternoon coffee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nicole Esposito, 34, from Maiori, discovered her true passion during her journey in the food & beverage world: chatting with her guests and getting to know them while standing behind a counter. Let’s get to know her in this short interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When did you start working at Pineta 1903?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n About two years ago<\/strong>. I had previously worked there before it became what it is today and before Carlo De Filippo took the reins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n After various experiences, including in the kitchen world, I realized that this was where I belonged.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n What do you do?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I manage the bar, mainly serving breakfasts<\/strong>. We offer a sweet Italian breakfast with cornetto, coffee, and cappuccino. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I also manage the relationship with suppliers. I have grown a lot professionally since I have been here. Carlo De Filippo has given me confidence and left me carte blanche.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n What do you like most about your job?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The relationship with the customers<\/strong>. Unlike the restaurant, the relationship with guests in the bar comprises moments. It’s much faster. And in that short amount of time, I have the opportunity to form a bond, sometimes even an intense one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I like to give emotions, and I also like to receive them. Remembering how a customer takes his coffee, whether lightly foamed or ground, is as essential to me as it is to him. It is these small attentions that keep guests coming back. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If they come back, it means that a connection has been made, which has a positive impact on me and them. This kind of relationship, which is fast and intense, got me hooked on cafeterias.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Her smile shines on the morning customers who enter the restaurant’s bar area for breakfast or an afternoon coffee.
