After years spent working in diners, restaurants, and cafes, the Macedonian immigrant has opened a place of her own.
Soma Café and Creperie Cuisines is located at 41 W Prospect St. in Waldwick.
"It's in my blood," Nedelkoski said. "My dream was to buy a food truck but I saw this little café and knew this was going to be mine."
Like the name suggests, Soma Café and Creperie Cusines specializes in crepes, and Nedelkoski makes her own using a special machine she got from Europe.
Having been open for two weeks, Nedelkoski is enjoying the experience of being a restaurateur, especially in Waldwick.
"I'm so happy," said Nedelkoski, of Garfield. "The customers are very nice and the town is beautiful. Everything is so perfect. It's a perfect location, next to the train station."
Customers have raved about the crepes and are also enjoying the gelatos, pastries and European-style coffee.
Nedelkoski said customers like the ambience of the café, which features indoor and outdoor seating, offering a European feel.
"We're giving people a taste of Europe," Nedelkoski said.
Nedelkoski said she's just happy being able to serve people.
"This is the job I really want to do," Nedelkoski said. "I love my job, I love to be around people. My dream came true."
