Sweden is well known for its fika culture and suits my lifestyle. I find it absolutely rejuvenating to sip coffee in a classic cafe and unwind. You could also choose to take away a cup and enjoy as you travel, in a beautiful garden or overlooking a serene lake. Gothenberg is truly a paradise for someone who wish to blend gastronomic delights with a novel, a rendezvous with a friend or in a park.
I usually combine cappuccino (sometimes latte) and a piece of cake but also like to try out new options or the signature dishes of a cafe. It is indeed a feast for the taste buds, especially for someone with a sweet tooth.
I have the satisfaction of my fika experience in some of the best cafes like DeMatteo, En Deli, Biscotti and Chapmans condittori. I only mentioned them as i visit them often.There are many avenues unexplored and on my agenda.
I enjoy good coffee and other dishes but what actually endears me to this culture is the lasting bonds and deep conversations made with my friends and also the times spent in introspection. The most rewarding experiences are sharing fika with my children.
Now, I'll carry the tradition of a fika to deepen relationships with my dear ones and also to make new friends.
