Les Gourmandises de Miyuko

Miyuko is a little cake/tea/chocolate shop in Zürich with a touch of Japanese style. It is cosy and dreamy and attracts a lot of different people that sit down and relax for 10 minutes or an hour. I was really surprised to not only see young girls chatting away over a nice piece of cake, but to see old business guys enter the store as well as elegant ladies and tourists with their kids - which got really excited over the promise to be able to pick the cakes for all their relatives ^-^

The service is really friendly and professional. They adress people the way they think would go the best - so I was greeted with a cheery "hoi!" whereas the guy next to me received a more 'formal' "grüzi" (but it turned out he is a regular and very close with the guy working there).

Latte Macchiato 

The first thing i got was a cup of water and a smile - even before i opened the menu. The cup got already refilled after i drank half of the water - very attentive.
I ordered a latte macchiato (CHF 5.50) - it came with a Cantuccini, both tasted really nice and i would have loved to buy a box of the Cantuccine immediately (or the recipe ^^).

Miyuko also offers quite nice selection of tea - ranging from CHF 5 (for a cup) to CHF 12 for a pot of more special types of tea.
Cake starts at CHF 5 and are also available as a whole and on order.
For people who like to come and enjoy a somewhat longer chat - Miyuko offers special sets: the 5-o'clock-tea for around CHF 29 and the chliine-Kafi-Tratsch (coffee, cake, praliné) for CHF 12
