Coffee, anyone?
Café Dommayer in Hietzing

  3. Merisi, what elegant places you show us in Vienna. I know the coffee will be delicious, and also know that it will be served with simple elegance. Here in NYC, it becomes a more rare experience to stop in a cafe for coffee and find it served to you in something other than an over-priced paper cup.

    I do continue to search out places that still believe in porcelain and china. Coffee is even more delicious that way. xo

    Is that a Punschkrapfen on that silver tray? Coffee and cake with
    nuts and rum---what a lucky girl you are, Merisi.

      Now I feel guilty because I only had a bite.

    1. I dare say there's no way for the coffee-buck-shops of this world to emulate a Viennese coffee house. :-)
