Coffee and cake

Today I'm in Petersfield for a little bit of shopping. I popped into One Tree Books, not only to look in the shop (I do love book shops, something wonderful about the smell) but I also had another mission - a coffee related one. Last time I was here there was hardly any gluten-free options in Petersfield, but that seems to have changed. The café, hidden away in the back of the book shop, is called Madeline's Kitchen and serves light lunches as well as delicious cakes, tea and coffees. I was just about to ask the chap behind the counter if they had any gluten free cakes when I saw that the labels were clearly marked with GF. I had a choice between a chocolate brownie, a lemon and polenta cake and a French almond cake. In the end I went for the almond cake. Absolutely perfect. Rich, perfectly moist, not at all dry and of course gluten free! Can highly recommend a visit here if you're in the area.

Hungry at Arlanda Airport

I've done this silly mistake once again, so here I am hungry, with a headache and no gluten-free food to be found... So stupid of me not to get something to eat before going through the passport control.

Anyway, to you fellow gluten-free travelers, and for my self as reminder, keep in mind to eat before going through the final passport control on terminal 5 by gates 58-69. Otherwise you'll might have to settle for this gourmet lunch for 70 sek (don't get me wrong I like cottage cheese, bit for a snack perhaps and not lunch) and also you could find some fruit as well if you feel like it.

Happy travels!
