Sorella Cafe
soralla_cafe.jpgSoyara and Sonia are sisters (hence 'Sorella ' meaning 'sisters' in Italian) from Brazil raised by an Italian mother and a Korean father. Their mother taught them how to cook and their father, a minister, taught them how to pray.
They came to the U.S. in 1981 with their father, who was accepted at the seminary in San Anselmo to work on his doctorate.

Being young and ambitious, Sonia and Soyara worked in the restaurant business. They worked together in catering companies and restaurants, picking up cooking methods and recipes along the way."we moved to Fairfax when my husband John and I bought a house a few years ago, explains Soyara with her omnipresent grin. "It even has a separate cottage on the property, in which Sonia lives.
