Changes at Tropics Café

How Dreams get started:
Heleen Cornet (Local Artist) came across a photo of the Elfin Forest taken by Kai Wulf, (Photographer and Saba Conservation Foundation Manager) she loved the picture and wanted to make it into a piece of art. Johanna (Owner Hotel) had always dreamed about having a rainforest painting on the ceiling of Tropics Café, and what photographer would mind having his photo used as a template for an oil painting.
​​
​Dreams do come true:
Johanna is getting her paintings, Heleen is busy making six 48 X 48 panels of Kai’s photograph and Kai gets his photo made into artwork!

​So we have gone through some changes at Tropics:  

• We’ve lifted the black and white tiles and laid down tile that looks like wooden planks (yes it is tile not wood ;))
• We’ve repainted the inside to make the artwork pop.
• We’ve gotten new butcher block tabletops to replace our tile top tables.
• New equipment inside the kitchen: we have a new stove and flame grill.
• We have repainted the inside of the kitchen for a refreshed look.
• All that within a week :)
