Linda Engstrom is the Ekshärad girl who runs the business in the Elvis Café in Östmark. Customers hanging on the lock at opening time when Worldkustom call but we manage to get a quick interview.
I have worked the branch and know what it’s about so when this opportunity came up, it felt just right, says Linda (left)
The newly made coffee sips down just in time for the first customer. Pia Andersson greats the guests. It’s only eleven on Wednesday morning with the ping of the door bell all the time.
Nostalgia, rock and roll and especially Elvis apply. It’s a little like being in a museum and having coffee.
-Many from Norway, says Linda
The border is only 3 miles west. Moreover, many Swedes who commute to the neighboring country in the job. Traffic on Östmark road is as lively as in the Café Memphis.
Linda is renting the place this summer from ” Pia, Rocki’n Pia Andersson” (above)
-Gotta’try it, Linda says in her irresistible Ekshärad dialect
– “Gotta’ try it ‘”
Worldkustom say the same to all car enthusiasts and nostalgia lovers. Gotta´try it. Linda and cafe Memphis is located just on the right as one enters the Östmark from south.
