Drinking an espresso in Zagreb proved to be a splendid affair. After my breakfast of pretzel, strawberries and walnuts, I needed coffee. So I sat in a pavement cafe with a view up the hill to the tracery of the twin spires of the cathedral, the golden statue of Mary and a renaissance tower, past a wooden stall selling strawberries. I sipped my coffee and took in the view and eased the tension in my shoulders and began to like where I was. When it was time to pay the bill (12 kuna – about $2AUD) I went inside the building and was astonished to find a vastly high ceiling, a sweeping curved staircase, a chandelier dripping sparkle and crisp white tablecloths. Makes my usual coffee haunts look a bit plebeian!
