Cafes and bakeries: oozing sweet charm

Petersham Nurseries Delicatessen, Covent Garden This time the blog is about the cafes and bakeries that are famous or not so famous but part of London’s culture. Any time I pass a charming cafe I want to go in whether I am hungry or not. Sometimes I satisfy myself by just taking a photograph and moving on. I can’t go in every time, now can I? I would be double the size I am if I indulge like that! Oh, I do wish to indulge! Though, there are times when it is too hard to resist the charm of a particular cafe or temptation of the baking and well brewed coffee smell wafting through the opened door. I then drag my husband to that place! One thing great about the cafes and bakeries in London I have noticed is that their cakes and pastries are never overly sweet.  Peggy Porschen Cakes It’s pink and beautiful!
