Barista
Liam lost his job and home. Now he's a Barista at a cafe using waste food. Latte art keeps him calm, until his old boss joins the staff. By Bethan Roberts.
The second of three stories about people connected to The Fork, a pay-what-you-feel cafe making delicious meals from food thrown out by supermarkets and restaurants - produce that would have ended up as landfill.
Liam is sofa surfing. First he lost his job at the town's only fine dining restaurant, and then his mum threw him out. Now he's on a scheme at The Fork, learning how to be a Barista. Latte art keeps him zen until his old boss, the Chef-from-Hell, joins the staff and is put in charge of training.
