Kiel & I, enjoying one of many café au lait in a Parisian café

Enjoying a Cafe near Covent Garden, London
November 2011
So a great love of both myself, and the friend I was with is food and coffee. Of course, our favourite meal of the day is breakfast. At what appeared to be a lovely little cafe in London, we had some difficulty ordering. The poor waitress didn’t quite understand my friend’s allergies, bringing her three times meals with ingredients she had already told her she couldn’t eat; finally settling for a bowl of yogurt with orange slices on top! I went for the cryptically sounding ‘Cheese Bruschetta’, due to a love of true bruschetta, and an interest in what the cheese element may be. I was somewhat surprised to be served cheese on toast…
Despite all this - which would normally incur the wrath of the both of us - we somehow left quite content!

Disappointingly poor coffee for an apparently well regarded institution. Being busy on a Saturday morning does not excuse burnt milk.
