Vienna's Café Sperl
Coffee, anyone?
"Here there is nothingI have taken from you
so I begin with memoryas old songs do
in this caféagainst the night
in this villa refrainwhere we collect the fragment
no longer near usto make ourselves whole ... "
Quoted from"Midnight Dinner at the Vesta Lunch"

The detail on that corner makes my fingers itch to follow its curves...*smiles*
Posts within a post - fabulous! This was a real treat to explore today. Makes me long to be in any one of these divine places.
I know I always say this, but this cafe looks just like the one they used in the movie "The Illusionist". So lovely! I especially like the curved/angled sofas, so that more than two people can sit around and have face-to-face conversation.
Don't see any coffeehouses remotely that cool over here, at least not where I'm from.
The romance just oozes from your photography Merisi.
The Cafes look so inviting. I think I would linger over coffee forever.
What a beautiful place to begin one's morning, or to stop anytime of the day for warmth from a cup, and of good cheer~
The first photo, through the mirror, is just amazing!
