Open kitchen with niece and nephew

This was followed by a mandatory stop in at Roza slon – Pink Elephant. They took Pad thai and Pad prik, which was too piquant for them. Since there was already too much food, they put it away for later, which was not difficult in convenient packaging. I had a little chat with the chef and the others.

Finally, we got to desserts; ice cream rolls, waffles, and baklava. I think we had one nice Friday get-together. They tried something new. I, on the other hand, met a couple of friends again; Barbara, Venesa, …
