Been at Quarks for: Not long enough ;)

Biog: I’m old enough to buy alcohol, but I was asked for my ID when I wanted to get scissors from the shop. As a Polish immigrant I speak with a ‘Borat accent’ and drink tea with lemon instead of milk. My adventure with Quarks started a few months ago and it was a good choice – now I’m on Facebook more often than ever! In the past I was definitely younger, that’s for sure. The rest is silence.

Things I like: Ham, stairs and hamsters.

Things I don’t like: Bacon. Kevin Bacon.

Things I like about Quarks: Two words: ‘Tuna Melt’. ‘One small melt for a man, one giant leap for mankind,’ as people say. Moreover, fantastic atmosphere, great music and a cosy interior.

Interesting Factoid: The pronunciation of my name (phonetically) of 'Tosha' in Swahili means 'Enough'

Classic customer moment at Quarks:

Customer: Is this an internet café?

Me: Yes, it is.

Customer: Do you have internet here?

Me: Er … yes

Personal links: Tosia has not included any personal links at this time.
