OK. So imagine that one restaurant is a fish restaurant. Another one is a pancake restaurant.A fish one.A pancake one.How do I refer do them in the following text ?Obviously English word "one" should correspond to {broda} or {ko'a}. How do I achieve this ?

If you want to refer to them individually, I don't think that's possible with only one term.
What you have means the pretty much same thing as what I wrote, although your ko'e assignment is different and your bridi is obviously much more complicated:
ko'a ponse lo re me ko'e goi lo gusta
ko'a owns two of something that is amongst (ko'e = one or more things that actually is a restaraunt).
Ko'a owns two things that are ko'e, where ko'e is "one or more restaraunts"
ko'a ponse ko'e goi re gusta
ko'a owns (ko'e = two restaraunts).
ko'a owns ko'e, where ko'e is "two restaraunts"

I wonder how to express the phrase "he is the owner of two cafes" using {ko'a} ("he") and {ko'e} (each of the cafes){ko'a ponse lo re me ko'e goi lo gusta} ?{broda} series won't work if in the following text each of the cafes is described.--
