Angela's Vintage Patisserie

For those who watch Dragons' Den: Do you remember that odd lady, dressed in unusual clothes and having bright red hair and piercing below her lip? Angela Newman's look was eye-grabbing, her pitch self-confident and smart and her idea quite unconventional. Her idea was to open a vintage-style patisserie in London where she'd offer retro-style desserts, decoration and even uniforms of the sellers.

I remember that when she was speaking, she was constantly using the word 'beautiful' - for the website, the food, the decors. The usually skeptical Debra was this time provoked and made an offer to Angela and the share in the company (in addition to the money for investment) was later divided between her and Theo. 100,000 GBP for 40% share.

The patisserie is now opened in Soho, London and judging by some pictures and videos, it seams to be doing quite well.

I think that the factors that contributed towards Angela's uccessful winning of the offer were her charisma, passion about what she thought (and is) amazing and her energy.

If I have the chance to go to London, I'll definitely search for this amazing place, especially when Soho is famous for its creative people living there :)
