Today I had a friend visiting and we went for a walk down to wander on the roof of the new Opera. Afterwards we went for tea at the Winter garden at the
Hotel Bristol. Not a usual haunt for this eastside girl but I love this place. Big old Chesterfields, nice and dark, dulled voices mumbling over prawn sandwiches and tea and coffee served in proper pots! The service isn't great but I don't really mind waiting here, it's comfortable and I know they aren't going to rush me off. Nice place to sit in the warmth after being out in the rain and I like to checkout the diversity amongst the other guests while I sit and feel a bit like a cuckoo in their nest in my engineer boots and naff old mac!
Lovely flowers, Daffodils from Andersens flowershop in Thorvald Meyersgate 32 in Grünerløkka. Martin and his nephews serve you with a smile and if you love Elvis you'll be happy there! Confetti flowers from Pelino of Italy, sweetmakers since 1793! These lovely flowers are handmade sugar coated Pizzuta almonds. You can buy them at Cafe Vespa in Københavngate 2 in Grünerløkka, Oslo.
