Since winter is almost here and it is getting colder and colder, I have to look for some places where I can hang out, drink hot chocolate for hours and hours while reading a book or browsing the internet. 'Café Angelique' (click to get to webpage -> here) seems perfect for this. Located in West Village, close to Greenwich Village, it is located in a very pretty area with Washington Square nearby.

Supposedly the best Cannoli in town.. I can't tell, because I haven't tried any others, but inferring from the massive lines in front of the shop and the outlook of these Cannoli to others in Little Italy in Boston,  they probably really are the most delicious in town.

On a Saturday afternoon flea market visit, I ran into these delicious doughnuts. They actually caught my attention because of having a "dulce de leche" flavor, which I am absolutely a big fan of. Unfortunately, I missed out to buy one early enough, and when I was leaving the flea market, there were no more left. But the disappointment did not last very long, when they told me that there was also a shop nearby where I still could buy the doughnuts.. I went there, bought the hibiscus one (dulce de leche had been sold out ;) and was endlessly happy.

Gebacken nach einem traditionellen amerikanischen Backrezept (danke Ceci ;)) ), ist dieser Brownie vor allem eines: lecker!!! Sein durch und durch schokoladiger Geschmack lässt einen auf Wolke sieben schweben und die Unzahl an Kalorien, die darin schlummern, vergessen. Denn Kalorien hat dieser Kuchen en masse ;)

At Slodki Slony (click here to get on their webpage) by Magda Gessler in Warsaw, almost every cake looks fascinating and tastes even more amazing. I've been there already several times while visiting Warsaw and I wasn't disappointed when I went there again last week, enjoying a big piece of cake with black currant, a hint of coffee, chocolate, nuts and a lot of other ingredients making this cake absolutely delicious! Accompanied by a Cappuccino, this afternoon couldn't have been better.
