Dom Beijos is truly an homage to Melissa’s Portuguese roots. Though there isn’t an exact translation to English, Beijos means kiss and embodies a feeling of passion for all things. Big impassioned kisses are the things that make the world a better place and provide a sense of peace and happiness. Both Melissa and Justin have an attachment to their neighborhood and the shop is a gift to those who welcomed them and a chance to create a space for them as a community.
