10) Tambini's Express Cafe - Margam

Time was that every South Wales town of any size had an Italian café, such were the links between South Wales and Italy. Thankfully Port Talbot still has the Tambini family's Express Café in Margam, in the eastern part of Port Talbot. When I first made this sketch, my daughter showed it to family connections of the Tambinis, who asked if they could buy the original of the sketch, and use it on their menus and wine labels. To say that I was delighted would be an understatement. The Express café is opposite one of the other buildings which featured in these early sketches, namely the round chapel.
