German Kaffee Time

To the most simple individual a coffee and cake is probably a daily routine however, those in Germany that walk down Zentrum (Downtown) -- and be overwhelmed by the thousands of Germans sitting and relaxing on a day around 3pm -5pm. You could be surprised that they actually do take time out of their day to enjoy this long, lasting tradition but never excluding a piece of cake or strudel or torte (cream cake). My favourite German Poppyseed Cake paired with a Caramel Espresso Macchiato ! And if it is a hot day I usually just grab a cold Mr. Brown!

A great start off to summer!

Thank you for your loyal business. We are happy to present to you our appreciation with 10% off your next purchase.


Print and present to the cashier. Have a wonderful start to the summer!

Macrobiotic Diet - Dulse Condiment

Dulse Condiment

We have had a few customers coming in asking for Dulse as a staple to their Macrobiotic Diet. Yes it is the Ying-Yang for food to help us balance our nutrition.

What you need:

1 cup sunflower seeds

1/2 cup rinsed dulse

How to prepare:

1. Warm up a skillet. Rinse the seeds in a strainer under cold water quickly. Strain again.

2. Immediately dry roast in the skillet, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until golden brown. Remove any brown or broken seeds.

3. When the seeds are toasted golden brown, partially grind in a coffee grinder or a suribachi.

4. Toast the dulse by putting it a toaster oven until crisp. Careful, it toasts very quickly. Remove when crispy and still red in color.

5. Crumble the dulse and mix with the seeds.

Enjoy!
