Cafes are important glue in Australian society, offering community, connection and fuel. Kieran Spiteri is part of Yolk Group, which owns four cafes in Melbourne's north and west: Convoy, Terror Twilight, Tinker and Hi Fi. We talk about the advantages and challenges of being part of a group, the tricky balance of menu staples and specials, mentoring and motivating staff, and why his business partners wouldn't be surprised if he walked into a meeting with a horse.
