I have been in this little café only three times, which is about 100 times too few. Located in busy hill by Aninkaistenkatu, this French café is good place to relax and dream of other worlds, like France. Owned by French man (speaks also finnish), they also sell French products, and provide French literature to read - if you forgot your own book. Selection of pastries is limited, since it is a small café, but atmosphere is rich. Step inside right moment, and you will be in the middle of multilingual and multicultural world. Since I speak few words of French, I try to be polite and at least greet the owner in French. Simple things make life rich and one's face turn to smile.
Book and café au lait. Enough to keep me happy. You can see their 'library' in the corner, with books (mainly in French) of fiction, travel, food, etc.
Behind that window runs busy Aninkaistenkatu, but the noise doesn't bother at all - at least myself. But in other hand, I do concentrate better when there is some sort of noise around. Old style door makes you feel welcomed into unique and personal café, not some cheap dump.
I really should get myself into this little café more often. Perhaps this week already. I would put this café in top three of all cafés in Turku at the moment - amongst those I have visited. Not because they have best selection of serving, but the atmosphere and personal, smiling service. Oui, c'est parfait.
