Quiz: Cafés of the world

Post by tiger76 » Fri Jan 08, 2021 11:02 pm

First Friday quiz of the year, I got 8/13 with a few educated guesses, some exotic cafes in this bunch, and plenty of social history as well.

Knew just 4
Guessed 5 more from descriptions.

I'm definitely more of a pub bloke.
El Greco of old on the bus station came out of inspiration from the last then, eh? :D

9 for me, 2 of my favourites in Vienna and Budapest.Have found a number of excellent cafes when on city breaks abroad using the Marco Polo guidebooks. The insider tips take you a little way of the tourist routes but some of the cafes plus bars/ restaurants have been great to sample.
