It's hard to give up an obsession with tea and cake so even
when we're on our travels we can't really resist the call of a cute tea room or
coffee shop.

This month, Laura visited Tubingen in Germany which, amongst it's traditional southern architecture and picturesque river, revealed itself to be a hub of mini coffee houses and tea shops. Oh, and a pastry lovers dream!

A favourite was Cafe L, a coffee shop that had literally opened the week before I arrived so everything was shiny and new.
The counter was bulging with gorgeous golden pastries and particular mention must go to the yummy croissants and almond cakes - so sweet and the perfect companion to the creamy latte they served.
It's bold decor was very modern yet in keeping with the area's traditional theme had a fab vintage coffee maker on display in the seating area - and it was pink!

Another was Marktchenke, a little cafe in the centre of the town with a very studenty feel. With indie music coming through the speakers and a menu that boasted mainly snacks and cakes, it was a great relaxing place for a quick lunch.

There were so many great coffee shops around I could have quite easily lived there! Where there's cake and tea, I will always be happy.
