<br />
So of course this was the first café I went for when a colleague and I wanted a little girl-time after work.<br />

Since there are several of these in town, we chose the one on Vallgatan.<br />
Upon first impression it is a two story café which is a little unfortunate since it makes sound travel and I can imagine that when there is crowded the sound will travel and there will be very noisy in there.<br />
<br />
Luckily there were not many people so the noise lvl was bareable.<br />
<br />
If you go upstairs and continue to the back you will find a room (where the toilets also are) with 3 booths and a little shielded from the rest.<br />
We were lucky that there was a single booth for us.<br />

Now since this is a French café I emidiatly went for the baguette. I mean this should be what they should be able to do more than anything. Right?<br />
Sadly, no.<br />
I really don't know what all the fuss is about. Yes there was plenty of filling. The chicken and bacon I chose was very delicious, but I would have thought that you would at least get in a homebaked baguette. Or at least a freshly warmed one.<br />
But no. It was a stale and a bit chewy bread which unfortunately ruined it a bit for me.<br />

<br />
The price for 1 baguette and 1 cola = 81.00 SEK <br />
<br />
Now I haven't ruled this place out completely. There was some rather delicious looking cakes on display, so I might go back and see if a cup of coffee and a cake might make me feel differently about the place.<br />
<br />
<br />
So overall my score of this place falls on a <b><span style="font-size: large;">***</span></b><br />
<br />
Pro: Comfortable sofas<br />
Con: A french café who cannot bake baguettes...? <br />

<br />
Since I myself moved here a short while ago I found that I was missing something. Someone to tell me where to eat, shop, which sites to see and most of all, what to stay away from.<br />
<br />
Of course this exists but I have only found one or two posts pr. blog or blogs in Swedish. Now I do know Swedish, but what about those who don't?<br />
<br />
So after gathering inspiration on different blogs (in particular with <a href="http://atauteigoteborg.blogspot.co.uk/">Linda</a>) I found that now is the time.<br />
Since everything is still new to me you will get a fresh point of view.<br />
<br />
So welcome to my world of eating, shopping and living in Gothenburg.<br />
Hope you enjoy the ride.<br />
