Nomnomnom Bremen Christmas marked.

The Christmas marked was of course full of delicious foods. The first thing we had was poffertjes (Dutch mini pancakes), with butter and confectioners sugar. Nomnomnom 😋

Another thing we had to try was the famous cafe Knigge.

It took forever to choose between all the gorgeous cakes. It was absolutely decadent.

Unfortunately I couldn’t take a lot of pictures of the interior because of the customers. It was an old world style of luxury. Warm colours, marble, small alcoves and a wait staff that was amazing. Everything was simply decadent.

After some cake we needed some fast food. Hash brown with apple sauce (For my mom).

Deep fried cheese and cauliflower. Yum

And for the first time I tasted Churros 😯 I was instantly addicted. 😋

And last but not least *drumroll* Hachez chocolate. 🍫🍫🍫

They even had real cocoa beans as decorations.

Two storeys of mostly chocolate and some tea. For a chocolate addict it was fabulous!!!

Bremen Cathedral #photography

Bremen Cathedral (German: Bremer Dom or St. Petri Dom zu Bremen), dedicated to St. Peter, is a church situated in the market square in the center of Bremen, in northern Germany.

In general, Bremen Cathedral is a medieval building. The oldest visible structures are the two crypts. The last parts built in romanesque style and in sandstone were the lower storeys of the western façade and the western towers. Since the late 1220s, vaults and walls were erected in bricks, partly hidden by sheets of sandstone. Only the outer wall of the southern row of chapels shows unhidden bricks. St Peter’s is one of the largest historic brick structures in Europe, but it comprises too many stone structures to be subsumed to Brick Gothic. During the great restoration of 1888 to 1901, the western towers and most of the western façade were rebuilt relatively close to previous structures. The crossing tower was a new addition, using the medieval crossing tower of Worms Cathedral as an example. The roofs above the transepts and the northern aisle were redesigned. Source
