Remembrance of Things Past
Café Drechsler Is But A Dream Now



There is magic



in playing to be alone



in public

May I invite all of you to head on over and see what's going on in coffee places around the world?

"In 2007 the doors of this coffee house jewel along Vienna’s Wienzeile-Street re-opened. After careful remodeling by Conran & Partners, Cafe Drechsler now presents itself as a café in 21st century style.
As such it continues the tradition that began with Engelbert Drechsler’s family in 1919 – to be a traditional meeting place for guests who appreciate typical coffee house specialties, classical Viennese coffee house cuisine with seasonal accents, and a relaxed atmosphere day or night."

  1. Merisi, I have enjoyed getting caught up with your recent posts. Grand to see more of the black and white photographs! Each photograph certainly provides the beginning of a story.

    Congratulations on being able to select the Daily Photo theme. Thank goodness coffee plays a part. The chairs in today's picture are very similar to the one I am sitting on as I type this comment. xo
