Apple Pie. Winkel43. Amsterdam

I would like to share with you a cozy place which was recommended by one of my friends, who is actually from Amsterdam.

This place I show you today, is one of these cafes you wished was in your city. This kind of charmingplaces that are perfect to share an evening with your friends, or just go and read something on your own.

This cafe is located in one of the nicest neighborhoods I visited in amsterdam, which is called Jordaan, close to the the nine streets district, and the Noordermarkt, where you can enjoy a biological market on sunday mornings. This is an area full of restaurants, little shops and nice cafes.

Winkel43 is a small cafe where you can enjoy different sandwiches and soups, but what it is actually really famous, is its apple pie, the only cake they make. The smell of this cake is spread all around the cafe and it is probably, the best apple pie in the city.

I truly recommend you, if you ever go to Amsterdam, to stop in this cafe, have a coffee and try this amazing apple pie, while you listen to the music of the bar.  Just forget the time we are living in Europe at this moment and  enjoy these beautiful things that are still made nowadays and that make a bit sweeter our lives.

Teitur Concert. Botanique. Brussels

Last friday I had the opportunity to go to one of the best concerts I have ever been, where I discovered a great singer-songwriter.

His name is Teitur, he is danish and I truly recommend you to see him if you have the chance.

He played in an amazing and cosy cultural centre in Brussels, called Botanique, which is one of this few antique places that still survive in these times when old things are pushed into the background and apparently, really few people care about it. Where are going if we even do not care about these tiny things?

Anyway, this is one of the beautiful things I discovered in these difficult times.

Profitez vous.
