This time...back for good!

I know, it's been a long time. I guess I needed a break to sort out what I was doing next and once I got that going, I am back on a roll! Ready for a ride? There will be a lot to show and tell.

Let's rewind.

I stayed very busy with the Good Sweets line. We moved into a new place, there was a lot and still is to do. It definitely doesn't happen overnight! We are truly a team now :) The grand opening will be this fall, until then you can still stop by and see us at Teslina 7, Zagreb. 

A month ago I went on a business trip to Stockholm and it was the first time for me to visit a Scandinavian country. What a place! I was beyond impressed. The way people (especially men!) dressed (super old school), spoke perfect english, very polite and everything around was very clean and neat.

Now, onto the food scene!


I was lucky with beautiful weather! (it gets dark at 10:30 pm)







" Wild chocolate" with cocoa beans growing in wilderness. Stunning flavor. 




My favorite coffee place "Johan & Nyström"
Isn't it lovely?



Love the leather aprons




Great blend!


Another great coffee escape - Drop Coffee



Licorice's big in Sweden. It is EVERYWHERE. If I were only a fan.


Butter cookie filled with pastry cream


Check out Xoko 





BEAutiful indoor market. Definitely one worth remembering. 




Fantastic bread and danishes.







Gotta get myself a pastry memory!


Esperanto - 1 Michelin















Very interesting flavors. Lots of Swedish and Asian inspired dishes. I had the Wagyu beef tasting that is from a local farm. As you can see, even Wagyu sushi! (not a fan). One thing I found very interesting was miso in a few pastry components. Salty and sweet. Loved the pairing. 

Overall; Amazing service, good atmosphere, average food. 

Pretty ice cream quenelle though :)
