\"Michael<\/a><\/p>\n

Life has a way of giving us subtle hints when we\u2019re on the right path. That\u2019s exactly how McGraw Caf\u00e9<\/a> Lead Michael Beblowsksi found his way into our family five years ago.<\/p>\n

A native New Yorker, Michael moved to Seattle the same way many are lured here: good music and great coffee. With a stack of resumes highlighting his food service career, Michael canvassed the streets around Pike Place Market and Belltown in search of a caf\u00e9 to plant roots. That\u2019s when our sign at the corner of Wall Street and First\u00a0Avenue caught his eye.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverything happened swiftly when I entered Macrina Belltown<\/a>,\u201d remembers Michael. \u201cAfter having an informal conversation with the [former] manager Krishna Chancey, who now tends bar at Brouwer\u2019s<\/a> in Fremont, I decided that I only wanted to work at Macrina.\u201d<\/p>\n

As caf\u00e9 lead, Michael wears many hats. A typical day includes delegating responsibilities to the McGraw team, assisting customers with everything from food selections to allergen questions, and placing vendor orders. And, while customers fuel their day with his perfectly crafted Americanos and lattes, he thrives on his interactions with them and his team.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile working at Macrina I have been fortunate to meet fascinating, creative and inspiring people on both sides of the counter. Our founder, Leslie Mackie<\/a>, is a Seattle industry icon who continues to stimulate our palettes while doing something that she is passionate about.\u201d<\/p>\n

That energy pervades all facets of the company and draws people in, he says. Amazed at how quickly the last five years have gone by, Michael is thankful to have spent them in good company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
