Which Coffee And Cake In Caffe Concerto, London and Where Worldwide?

 The colours and shapes of the cakes and desserts look enticing in the window of Caffe Concerto in London, near Trafalgar Square. Macaroons. Slides of cake. 

My husband and I have been there several times after wine tastings at the nearby Civil Service Club.

On our way back to the underground railway station under Trafalgar Square.

The branch we visited was near Trafalgar Square in London, England, UK.


We had a good coffee, brown sugar in sachets already on the table. When we asked for cold milk it came up fast. The fact that the tables are numbered suggests thought and system in their service.

We shared a cherry tart, which seemed one of the healthiest of all their tempting sugary pastries.

Caffe Concerto has branches all over the world including the Middle East.

Italian novelties. Wines, food and festivals - including a white chocolate Xmas tree

Image
New wines and food from Italy  . Opportunity for distributors in the UK. Restaurants and hotels. Find something unique which nobody yet has to offer the customer. My favourite item was a green xmas tree from a cones of  white chocolate with a green pistacchio flavour coating.  Unfotunately I was not able to take a photo. But here's one I found on the web. White chocolate covered with pistacchios. From Turin which has been a centre of chocolate making for centuries. This is not available now, in May, but something to look out for at Christmas time. But it's good to plan buying or stocking a shop or restaurant. The big supermarkets order specialities up to a year ahead. I saw a giant solid wheel of yellow cheese, with the centre carved out into small chunks by keen eaters. Great eye-catching idea for serving at a party, a wedding or on a restaurant trolley. Items I saw included giant green olives. Bottles of yellow or white, viscous olive oil. Favourite Food From Italy chocolates

Wine and dine in Wales on Welsh Honey, Whisky and Chocolate

Image
 Wales has wonderful food, the familiar Welsh lamb from the green valleys, watered by the Westerlies, the winds coming in from the sea. I used to drive every year from London to Wales along the M4 which took about four and a half hours.  I have also been on the train from Paddington station many times. It is exciting to get on a train and see the signs in English and Welsh (which I have been learning on Duolingo). On the way home I buy Welsh cakes on the train. They look like squashed scones. If only I could keep them until I get home and heat them up. Swansea Seaweed But Wales also offers the unusual, seaweed from Swansea, which as the city's name suggests, is on the coast.  Welsh Wine and Alcohol Dylan Thomas was well known for enjoying a drink or two or more at Welsh pubs (short for public houses). You can buy a mug for your tea, bearing his picture. Wales has a magnificent building named in his honour and an annual festival. Driving Drive to Wales from London along the M4, pass

Wine Labels Words Translated from French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese

Image
  Wine labels tell you about the style of wine, its colour, white, black, red, pink, orange. Sometimes the grape, the proportion of grapes in a blend, the flavour (such as a fruit or nut). The country, or specified place of origin, the district, or the vineyard. In some countries the division is within the owner's land, the owner, the maker, or co-operative, the importer.  You learn whether it is dry or sweet, the sugar content. You may also learn whether it is vegan (without using egg white to clarify or cling to impurities such as the sediment of bits of wine skin or stalk or debris), Kosher may be mentioned, or kosher for Passover (around Easter time in the Jewish religion). Alsace - region of North Eastern France, at one time German, so a mixture of French and German names and words on bottles botas - cases in Spanish clos was originally a walled vineyard, closed, and enclosure, but the walls have often disappeared and the name is not regulated so anybody can call their patch o
