SATURDAY - Coffee Shop

SATURDAY - On the way back from Ismaylovo, Bill and I headed to get some groceries and stopped for capuccinos on the way at a place called the Coffee Bean. It was surprising how much it was like an American coffee shop; the cappucinos were delicious.


















The desserts were interesting and different though. Both the items Bill and I ordered were made with layers of blini (very thin buckwheat pancakes). Mine was an apple and sultana layered with plain blinis.






Bill's was layers of chocolate blini with butter cream frosting between. Both, like most desserts here, were not very sweet, but rich and delicious.
