On the list of my must-see stores in Tokyo was an intriguing-sounding shop in the Western parts of the city: Hansel & Gretel (yes, the store is indeed named after the Grimm Brothers’ famous fairy tale!) is located in the affluent suburb of Seijo.

Three different kinds of Aachener #printen from two manufacturers, @nobisprinten and Printenbäckerei Klein. Printen are a type of very hard, flat #gingerbread, made from flour, spices (cinnamon, allspice, cloves, cardamom, nutmeg etc.), sugar syrup, beet syrup or brown/white sugar, crushed rock candy, finely chopped candied fruit, whole or chopped nuts; printen can be plain, glazed with white sugar syrup or covered with diffent types of chocolate. My favourite are the plain printen with their glossy surface! The classic printen shape is rectangular; the thin printen sticks seem to be a local speciality (I've never seen this type of printen shape in supermarkets outside of #aachen) and they are extra crunchy. The large white printen block is covered in a powdered sugar glaze. "Aachener Printen" is a protected term of origin which means that anything called #aachenerprinten must be printen manufactured in or around the city of Aachen. #trendtravellerontour #aixlachapelle #northrhinewestfalia #citytrip #foodie #foodsouvenir #traveleating #lebkuchen #printenbäckereiklein #backwaren #confectionery #baking #germany #localfoodThe ceiling of Aachen's world-famous #dom church. The church was built in the 9th Century by #karldergrosse (#charlemagne) which makes this one of the oldest sacral buildings in Europe. Beautiful proportions and surprisingly compact (when I hear the term "Dom" I immediately think of Cologne's soaring cathedral 😀); damaged by fire in the 17th Century, extensively renovated and repaired during the Baroque period, gorgeous mosaics; gold decorations everywhere, UNESCO #worldheritagesite. Breathtaking. #aachen #aixlachapelle #charlemagne #mosaics #northrhinewestfalia #nrw #rheinland #middleages #mittelalter #sakralarchitektur #church #trendtravellerontour #germany#espressobreak at @cphcoffeelab on Carlsplatz in #düsseldorf. It's the first time I've been to one of Copenhagen Coffee Lab's cafés (the Swedish chain has several outlets in Düsseldorf) - the espresso's very good. And that cardamom bun!!! 😍😍😍😍 #dusseldorf #dusseldorfcafes #trendtravellerontour #foodie #bakery#badgodesberg #bastei #riverside #rhine #rhein #rheinromantik #rheinland #rhineland #siebengebirge #sevenmountains #sevenhills #pier #kölndüsseldorfer #rheinschifffahrt #germany#espressobreak in #linzamrhein. Mediocre espresso but beautiful sunshine and such a picturesque scenery. #rheinland #rhineland #rheinromantik #rhine #rhein #daytrip #beautifulgermany #riversideA #kölsch #stängsche on the #koelndüsseldorfer ship MS RheinFantasie en route to Linz am Rhein. #rheinromantik #beer #rheinland #rhineland #rhine #riverboat #daytrip #beautifulgermany #daytimedrinking #latesummerA rather cool new #limitededition from German budget makeup brand @essence_cosmetics: "Couldn't Care More!" offers everything your eyebrows might desire; and the product line-up goes far beyond the usual grooming tools!Kontor- und Kaffeehaus Königswinter doesn't just serve excellent locally roasted #eselsbohne espresso #coffee but also carries the entire range of @georgia_ramon_chocolate. Niche chocolate manufacturer #georgiaramon is another hyper-local business, this #beantobar brand is based in Oberkassel (which is practically next door to #königswinter). Georgia Ramon's chocolate bars are quite pricy (50 gr retail at 5.90 Euro) but they are excellent, with eye-catching packaging and really creative flavours. On the left you see a 70% dark chocolate bar with dried chanterelle mushrooms, right hand side is Beetroot & Coconut, a maroon-coloured bar with coconut flour, beetroot juice powder and toasted coconut chips. @kontor_kaffeehaus_koewi is a charming place, by the way; combining a café with a concept store and bookstore and a focus on locally made fashion, food and beverage products - not something that I expected to see in Königswinter, a traditional touristy little Rhein #village 😀. #espressobreak #craftchocolate #localbrands #coffeelover #chocolate #gourmet #foodie #bonn #oberkassel #rhineland #rheinland #germanyView from #drachenfels mountain: the river #rhine with #nonnenwerth island. #siebengebirge #sevenmountains #sevenhills #rhineland #rheinland #rheinromantik #rheinebene #königswinter #inselnonnenwerth #beautifulgermany
