Satire
The Tip Top Cafe opened in Oakland the weekend of July 15th 2012, and the new establishment offers outdoor seating and spectacular views.
The Tip Top Cafe, which will only be open seasonally from April 1st through November 1st, is an out door dining establishment set overlooking the majestic rolling hills of the Ramapo Valley.
The operators of the cafe are still working out kinks and logistics before a grand opening is scheduled, so this weekend’s recent opening was not advertised .
The ambitious plans of setting a cafe on top of a mountain have met with a variety of challenges in terms of both construction and everyday operation. Invited guests who attended this trial run were excited at the prospects, but found that there was room for substantial improvement in terms of fully executing the concept.
While the Tip Top Cafe owners readily admit that much work needs to be finished, they are ready to begin launching their advertising campaign and invited The Journal to film their progress.
The 4 minute video below is a compilation of the experience of two guests invited to the private opening of the cafe this weekend.
