Schönes Ambiente, tolle Auswahl und sehr nette Mitarbeiter. Frühstück war klasse.
Wetter hat auch gepasst, es war ein Erlebnis.
I have no other words to describe my experience at Cafe Michele except that it was delicious and amazing. You walk in to this huge glass case of probably about fifty different cakes, multiple types of strudel, gelato and truffles. I was in sugar heaven.
After ordering at the counter, we grabbed a seat and really enjoyed watching all the specialty gelato drinks come out. So naturally, I had to order one and decided on the eise kaffee, which was phenomenal. While the simplicity of a drink only containing coffee, gelato and whipped cream is enjoyable in itself, I think this cafe must had added some magic heavy cream, sugar and extra gelato to make it even that much better. The little decorative umbrella was also appreciated!
While the drink would have been enough in itself, Cafe Michele is also where I had my favorite slice of cake during my visit to Germany. It was called a Johannisbeerkuchen, or red current tart. I would normally be turned off by anything that has a jelly consistency, by the texture of the red currents was a perfect balance between sweet and bitter. The meringue on the top literally led to me have a spiritual moment, it was that good. It was the prefect texture, airy yet creamy. The outside of the cake was also dusted in shredded almonds, which was a nice contrast to the creamy and buttery cake.
The second cake we tried was the Wurzburg Winzertorte, which was reminiscent of a coffee cake and my mom's favorite cake. Out of all the bakeries we tried, the fact that Cafe Michele will be remembered most is saying something! I would kill just to sit here for an afternoon, people watch, eat cake and drink coffee. Those Germans have got it good!
We adore this cafe! We went there for dinner on our second day in town and liked it so much that we came back for breakfast in the morning before hopping on the train. The waiters were all incredibly friendly. I speak enough German to get by but my fiance does not. They treated him so kindly and explained the menu in English better than I could have (of course). Our evening waiter, Sören, was an absolute delight and made us feel incredibly welcome in Würzburg. I highly recommend this restaurant, Germans and tourists alike!
