One word: cakes. Cafe Schwesterherz has really amazing homemade cakes. Every day you can find another one. They are always different but have one thing in common: You want a second piece.
One of my favorite cakes is carrot cake. It's the perfect combination of the ingredients: nuts & carrots, topped with a lime frosting.
Of course Café Schwesterherz doesn't just have cakes. Every day, they offer a few healthy dishes for lunch e.g. grilled goat cheese, quiche, carrot-ginger soup, fresh Thai curry and much more.
And then there is the breakfast. You can find a wide range: from pancakes with fruits, porridge with honey, apple and nuts or scrambled eggs with herbs and fresh bread.
It's good spot to eat during daytime as it's a cute place for brunch, teatime, lunch or just for meeting your friends or working on your own. The two sisters who own the café are also really nice and accommodating when you have special wishes, for example vegan options or birthday brunch.
