Minsk cafe accepts zucchini in exchange for coffee

Minsk cafe "Van Gogh" announced an unusual promotion, offering customers to bring a zucchini and receive a free S-sized cappuccino or americano in return.

Users wondered if they could bring a pattypan squash, if there would be coffee with zucchini milk, or if they could come with their own coffee and exchange it for a zucchini. Someone decided that the "rate is favorable," as a zucchini costs 4 rubles in the store, while coffee is 5-12 rubles, Onliner.by writes.

Jokes aside, the cafe can now be called "Van Zucchini" — about 50 kg of vegetables have already been brought to the establishment.

Lia, the art manager of the space, said that a similar promotion is being held at the cafe for the first time. The idea belongs to the founder, although the employees were initially a bit skeptical: according to rumors, this year's harvest is not very large.

But in reality, the baskets with autumn vegetables in the cafe can't be emptied fast enough.

— You just turn away, and it's full again. They must be multiplying by budding, — Lia shares with a smile. — Other cafes have already picked up the idea — for example, they are accepting pumpkins.

All the harvest collected since September 1st is stored in a dry, cool place.

The answer to the most frequent question from cafe visitors has become known: what will happen to the zucchini. Yesterday, a free distribution of autumn vegetable pie began.

— We processed about 10-12 kg of zucchini with four hands. It took about five hours, — Polina, the director of the establishment, recounts how the night went. — We got 5 sweet pies, 4 savory pies, and 2 pots of pancakes. We hope there's enough for everyone.

    Вот так вот значит? Да? На бумажный стаканчик с коричневым буржуйским напитком. На 100 грамм жидкости! Променять самое дорогое что есть в жизни: кабачок, дача, жигуль, теплица... Мы годами, всю жизнь можно сказать стоим ра..ом в грядках, а они вот так вот! Ради кого мы жизнь свою гробим??? Это вот такие же, в 1991 променяли великую страну на джинсы и кока колу!

    hard, чтобы "угол не гулял". Довелось приобрести коммерческую недвигу с мелкой площадью и проходняк каля наля, ну и пришлось.
    А про кабачки....Не каждый рецепт прокатит с ними, чаще их ростят для подарка)) и часто передаривают.
