Comprising of an assortment of continental cuisine, the café is usually extremely vibrant, and plays host to a multitude of demographics. “I wanted to run a place where all age groups could enjoy. Which is why our customers come from a cross section of age groups,” says Mehvish.
Mehvish seems to relish the life of a restaurateur and sees herself completely occupied by the functioning of her establishment.What M n U café also represents is a paradigm shift in Kashmiri Business ownership. A woman of substance, Mehvish owns and runs the establishment in a City where women have just begun shedding traditional gender roles. “I do get a lot of trolls targeting me on Facebook and other parts of the internet, asking me to stick to my gender roles. But
I don’t let all the hate bother me. In fact, I’d expected a lot more hate than I’m currently getting,” she confessed.Undeterred, Mehvish moves on to realise her dream of opening a second outlet in the City soon.
