Once upon a time, a boy named Fausto went shopping with his mother in Philadelphia. When they returned home, Fausto’s mother noticed that he was hiding something in his hand. She pried his fingers open, and a small blue elephant appeared. “Elly” became Fausto’s best imaginary playmate, and the two of them begin a series of adventures that eventually led them to southern Maine.
In 2007 Fausto and Elly moved to Saco with Reuben and Sophia. They decided to open a catering company and café at Pepperell Square. After much deliberation, Fausto and Reuben decide to name the venture “The Blue Elephant”, as Elly has brought much luck to Fausto in his life.
