The \u2018Chill\u2019 caf\u00e9 employs 100 percent Kuwaiti citizens, and is operated by a group of dynamic young Kuwaiti women. The caf\u00e9 serves a diverse range of snacks and drinks.<\/p>\n<p>Young Kuwaiti women were once discouraged from being involved in such business, and so the expatriates monopolized the eatery industry with a variety of restaurants. Now, Kuwaiti women are shinning in this type of enterprise, such as owner of the Chill Caf\u00e9, Bushra Al-Baloshi. Once a philosophy teacher, she along with a group of young Kuwaiti women launched the Chill caf\u00e9, a spot for delicious food.<\/p>\n<p>She told a local daily that she is proud of her work and wants to prove that Kuwaiti youth of both sexes can do all types of work, and added that many of them had been hardworking when the coronavirus pandemic hit the country.<\/p>\n<p>Stressing that the time of depending on expatriates is a thing of the past, Al-Baloshi emphasized that she is pushing for young Kuwaitis who have graduated from university to go into these types of small projects in addition to their regular jobs.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/192.163.207.100\/~timesku1\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/chil3l.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-50338\" src=\"http:\/\/192.163.207.100\/~timesku1\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/chil3l.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"479\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timeskuwait.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/chil3l.jpg 600w, https:\/\/timeskuwait.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/chil3l-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/timeskuwait.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/chil3l-526x420.jpg 526w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She revealed that the caf\u00e9 makes satisfactory profits for them.
