Bread-heaven


Damn, if there is a bread heaven on earth, it must be at café Wolfisberg in Carouge! I went there briefly today, and bought some bread on the way out, since I'd bought bread from there once before and have fond memories of consuming it on the balcony with a bottle of rosé. Ok, perhaps not a bottle of rosé, let's say a glass... Anyway, my memory served me right. I bought the same bread as the time before - a small baguette shaped loaf which was stuffed with apricots and pistachio nuts. I just had some and, oh my god, this bread is to die for! I was a bit annoyed by how expensive all their bread is, but I understand why, because this isn't just normal bread I'm talking about; no, this is bred blessed by the gods! I'll quite happily pay a few francs extra for bread that tastes this good. I could easily eat the whole loaf myself (I bought a small one, unfortunately a bit too small) but because of the estimated high calorie content I choose to save some for my husband. Also, when I eat something that tastes really nice, I like to share my experience with someone. And I can't help hoping that he will go crazy for this lovely bread as well and insist on going back to buy some more....
