Kaffee und Kuchen

We went to have some Kaffee und Kuchen (coffee and cake). Yes, sometimes we need some Germanness ^^ It seems that Japanese come to cafés in order to smoke. They smoke so much! Unfortunately, this café did not have a seperate non smoking area. This is one big plus in Paderborn: smokers cannot disturb your enjoyment of coffee and cake.


We found some cheese cake! But it tasted nothing like a good German cheese cake at all...



Our Japanese teacher once said: in Japan the food looks delicious, but then it tastes like crap. 
It was not meant so serious, but it actually is a little bit true. The Japanese place great emphasis on the visual appearance of food. And sometimes (like with the cheese cake) you are disappointed.



 
Thank you guys for the nice afternoon ^^
