Remembrance of Things Past
The Mocca Club at Wienzeile


Once upon a time


there was this beautiful place
where they brewed really good coffee -


a favorite hang-out
not only of students from
the nearby Vienna Technical University


Turkish coffee and other delights, now only a memory -
this happens even in Vienna where time's supposed to stand still

“Remembrance of things past
is not necessarily the remembrance
of things as they were.”
Marcel Proust

  1. This is how coffee is served here in the old town of Mostar or Sarajevo. Old fashioned on copper trays.
