French dessert + American coffee + Italian design = located in Spain!
February 23, 2008
Today we made a trip to Santiago de Compostela. Of course the Cathedral was breathtaking, for its long history and the work of art that it shows. However, after visiting it, we discovered something that surprised us just as much as the Cathedral did.
It was a cafeteria situated in one of the callejóns near the Cathedral, with the name Mora. At first, it seems just a normal pastelería with some special printed walls, but when you move forward, there appears another space of “Hey relax, take a seat and have some coffee”. Moreover, they sale hand-made chocolate with a super chulo design, wrapped in all kinds of packing papels and even in the shape of a CD.
I ordered a milhojas francesa and a avellana caf’e laitte. The coffee was quite of the American style, light and sweet, which reminded me of the X’mas Special that Starbucks promotes in Sh, that was the same flavor.
With that X’mas papel cup held in one hand, I took a walk in the downtown area during the deep winter…
The milhojas was also fantastic. I’ve never tried that of PAUL which Like told me that enjoys a high reputation, but i think it won’t be far from that anyway.
The cafeteria has its atmosphere designed in an Italian style: simple and modern.
That’ s the very place that i would like to work if it’s not for Velneo, jeje.
