Top 5 of Pastries and Desserts
you must try...

I put together a list of addresses where you should try the pastries and desserts! Especially if you have a soft spot for sweets and chocolates, like I do :) Unfortunately I don't have many pictures of my pastries or desserts, due to the fact I rather eat them! But the one on the left is taken at Serendipity3 in New York.

1. Demel, Vienna (Austria)

This address (Kohlmarkt 14) is famous because of its pastries and chocolates. The pastries are delicious! Last time I was there, they even had a chocolate fountain! (Opening hours: daily: 10 AM – 7 PM)
I was thrilled when I was visiting Salzburg and saw they opened one here as well! It's located at Mozartplatz 2. (Opening hours: Mon – Sat: 8 AM – 7 PM and on Sundays & Public Holidays: 9 AM – 7 PM)
When I was browsing on their website I even found out they opened one in New York! Located at The Plaza Retail Collection, One West 58th Street. (Opening hours: Mon – Sat: 11 AM – 7 PM and Sunday from 12 PM – 6 PM) Well, I know where I’ll be going for my pastries and desserts next time I’m in NY :)


2. Tomaselli, Salzburg (Austria)

This is a lovely place to enjoy a cup of coffee and a nice piece of pastry! They offer a large variety of different coffees and pastries. The pastries are brought to your table by a lady that carries a huge tray with all kinds of cakes for you to choose from! If you go in the summer time you can enjoy all this out on the balcony while overlooking the streets of Salzburg ... lovely!


3. Serendipity3, New York

Serendipity3 is a place you just have to check out, if you like desserts and chocolate. (I do :) They serve lunch and dinner too! But I went looking for it after I saw the amazing sundaes in the movie 'Serendipity'. And I have to say, they don't just look good! It's located at 225 East 60th Street (between 2nd and 3rd Avenues). When I went, it was packed! You can make reservations, but only for lunch or dinner, not for desserts. They open at 11.30 am.


4. The Cheesecake Factory, USA

You can find the Cheesecake Factory at different locations all over the US. You can eat a lot more than just cheesecake here! And it’s all yummy :) But the desserts are my favorite! Personally I just love Linda’s Fudge Cake > layers and layers of chocolate cake: delicious!!! But that’s probably because I’m a chocoholic ;o)


5. The Méert, Lille (France)

This is a beautiful pastry shop in Lille, located near the Grand Place (27 rue Esquermoise). They sell delicious sweets here! And in the back of the shop, there is a little tea room where you can have a piece of chocolate cake or one of the many other French pastries. Their specialty is a vanilla centered waffle. For travelers with a sweet-tooth, this is a place to visit!
