A little try at home gift and a flyer for the shop
https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...a0bb96a80.jpeg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...ec6e78a02.jpeg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...c69dfe377.jpeg The cheesecake is good, the tea is vile, the colour is very appropriate :D https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...461fe2eb1.jpeg |
Stop 2 is Sesamo for Sonhos
https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...ce461728e.jpeg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...0460da1d5.jpeg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...96f3dfea7.jpeg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...0ba47e04e.jpeg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...9d2d44ae5.jpeg Light pastry, cane sugar, and cinnamon, all very tasty |
Stop 3 is only a few feet away, the bakery Fabrica Sto Antonio
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...61dab0cdb.jpeg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...cecff3f7e.jpeg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...f25a881d2.jpeg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...767d93885.jpeg A small sample of the cake an a selection of biscuits https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...5be716cdc.jpeg |
Not a stop, but a recommendation on the way past. I guess it is not a stop as they do not sell cake :D

Nice food and a very easy drinking wine
https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...c08d9e460.jpeg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...b6fc99c42.jpeg |
A surprise final stop for a drink. I’ve gone for the Nikita which is beer, wine, and ice cream, dangerous stuff!
https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...9d9351056.jpeg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...7a57bb8c1.jpeg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...3ded3d0d4.jpeg This Nikita is very dangerous, you would not know there is wine and beer in it. And with that, the tour is at an end and it is time to head to the tuk tuk meeting point |
You are easily on your way to writing a book on food tours of the world. Always a good start to Saturday to find a JapesUK adventure on FT!

Food tours I can do, tuk tuk tours, not so much! No show at the meeting point, no contact, no answer, so after ten minutes I gave up and went for a wander. Ten minutes later. I get a message that the driver is waiting, too little, too late!
A couple of random pics and then I’m going to head back to the hotel and try the rooftop bar, or a siesta, or both! https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...f5b119e93.jpeg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...9b2292d49.jpeg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...7f1089e14.jpeg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...132c167d7.jpeg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...f805d1376.jpeg |
The siesta won the day, if only briefly, and a thirty minute snooze took the edge off rather nicely. Then it was time to head to the roof bar
https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...061bc96a6.jpeg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...d27a2bf3a.jpeg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...cb095ba79.jpeg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...79ccab7de.jpeg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...88f391227.jpeg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...2aa323d2c.jpeg Second rainbow of the weekend https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...77dbd1892.jpeg And down to business with a good morning coffee and a Coral blonde https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...c16d69cbb.jpeg The barman is a hoot, dry, cynical, sarcastic sense of humour, he seems somehow familiar ;) He definitely appreciates my National Sarcasm Society t-shirt |
Cake tour looks great :tu:
Tuktuk not to be trusted. Did they offer any excuse? |
