An Australian Cafe is trying to "bring the romance back" by asking customers to kiss their loved ones and, in exchange they don't have to pay their coffee bills.
"Take your partner to the cafe from 9 to 11 a.m. in June and surprise them with a kiss when you order your coffee," the New York Daily News quoted a post on the Metro St. James cafe's Facebook page, as saying.
The romantic promotion has put Metro St. James into the international spotlight and the video uploaded to YouTube has gone viral, being viewed more than 20,000 times.
