Meet our Talented Barista
Mike Khylko
Meet our Talented Barista! Mike, 28 is originally from the Ukraine and has joined our MUŻA Restaurant Team from early on. He decided to travel to Malta to pursue a new adventure and to join our Team.
Mike studied Geography, Ecology and Ecomony at the Ivan Franko National University in the Ukraine, but bars were always Mike’s passion and he has taken various courses and continues to study on subjects such as coffee, cocktails, spirits etc, and that is why he was the perfect candidate for our Barista Position at MUŻA Restaurant. Previously in the Ukraine, Mike has worked as a Bar Tender and also Somalier for about 4 and a half years before moving to Malta.
Being a geography student, Mike first fell in love with the Maltese natural habitat, and different landscapes and in his free time would go out for walks and explore the countryside. Mike also loves the generous local hospitality. He feels that Maltese people made him feel immediately at home and he has always found someone local to help when he asked for it. Mike’s move to Malta meant that he could grow more as a person, experience new things and make a better life for himself. In fact, just a month after he started his adventure in Malta, Mike was asked to participate in a local Cocktail Competition where he placed third with his delicioius Pink Panther Cocktail.
For Mike, MUŻA Restaurant is a new experience with great standards, and a spectacular atmosphere that is ideal for every occassion. Mike believes that he fits in so well with the MUŻA Team because of his outgoing personality and his gift of being able to get along with any person from different backgrounds.
