Harpurhey: So, there’s this café owner, Thuy Nguyen, who’s really going through it right now. Her café, Trisian’s Traditional Family Restaurant, caught fire, and it’s just heartbreaking. The fire broke out on a Sunday afternoon, and by the time she got there, it was a total mess.
She wasn’t even at the café when it happened. A worker from a nearby shop called her, and she rushed over, but they wouldn’t let her in because it was too dangerous. Can you imagine? She thought it might just be a small issue, but when she arrived, it was way worse than she expected.
Thuy had put her life savings into this place, and now it’s all gone. Everything in the kitchen is ruined, and she’s feeling completely lost. She’s even set up a GoFundMe page to try and raise some money to help fix things up.
She suspects the fire started because of an electrical fault, which is just so unfortunate. Now, she can’t reopen, and the costs to repair everything are piling up. It’s not just her that’s affected; her staff are out of work too, which is really tough for everyone involved.
Thuy’s asking for any help she can get, no matter how small. She’s really hoping the community will rally around her because this café means a lot to everyone. It’s just a sad situation all around.
