Temptations in Zurich and Slovenia

If you have a weakness for chocolate...or fresh fruit pies....or grilled sausage...or golden fried hash browns...or crisp pomme frites...(fries) or cheese in a hundred varieties...or creamy yogurt (in small glass jars) or crusty whole grain bread...or exceptional coffee with steamed milk...then avoid Zurich....because everywhere you turn....you find yourself facing cafes and restaurants...where you can indulge in luscious food.

An ordinary bakery with their extraordinary mouth-watering fresh strawberry pies

Candy shop windows are sensual galleries of color and texture....how can you refuse the invitation to go in?

Glow worms of chocolate happiness

Slovenia has extraordinary treats too....here a woman in the capital city let's me share her gorgeous fruit sundae through my lens......

This little cutie was the night waiter at one of the cafes in Lake Bled, Slovenia....In the evening, I would walk down to this little cafe overlooking an alpine lake...the cafe had bright overhead lights so I could do my homework and friendly wait staff who suggested that writing could be improved with a brandy and a treat....this time my friend insisted I try the speciality of the house...a chocolate cake with whip cream and hazelnuts and chocolate drizzle...accompanied by a smooth tummy warming brandy....ahhhhh....there are good things in life...and cake and brandy eaten in an outside cafe next to an alpine lake is definitely one of them.
