Sombra Coffee Lounge in Camarillo opens door to unique drinks

The shop matches the name with the front windows covered in reflective tinting to darken the shop, dim lighting and brown leather benches lining the wall of the seating area, reminiscent of coffee lounges found in Aroosa Santoyo's hometown of Manchester, England.

But the standout was a stellar eggplant lasagna, with homemade pasta, that I’d love to see return for a longer run.
