A search for coffee and sweets

A few ladies from church went for coffee this week. We were on a search for the perfect place. Good coffee, cute place, good food, hopefully an English menu!!!, and a good view maybe. The coffee was the main goal however.

005 Our first stop was not too far off base at Trouvere. 004This was a cute little coffee shop and bakery but he was closed except for food take out. 002So we all bought a pastry. I got a fresh fruit cheesecake tart thing. It was really really good! The sweets here are not as sweet as in the states but this was perfect.

And the search continued….014Next stop was this place. It says Mountain but I think that might be the kind of coffee they serve. 006It had an European style inside.009Picture of us ladies, minus Christen. She was the photographer. This place had a view. We were sitting right on the river.011And it had delicious coffee. The lady working however didn’t speak English and they didn’t have an English menu. All we managed to order was coffee!

And the search continued…016Next stop was this place. Not Japanese style either. Swedish? German? I don’t know. Someone will recognize this.015Storefront. 018There were lots of goodies in here but no coffee. Super cute store. The lady behind the counter gave Cora some shortbread cookies and I bought some slices of sweet bread.

 

Overall we had a lovely day on a wild goose chase for the perfect coffee place. We didn’t find it all in one store but I found three new places to visit. It was a great success for me!
