A great view on one of the most beautiful squares in the world... and a nice interior either!

I love the absence of advertising and signs in this square. I don't think Americans could let all that space go unexploited.

What a view! From the very small comes LARGE.

What a divine conflict of modern and classic all in one post. Both gorgeous, and both stunning representations of their genres.

I'd be torn between sitting inside surrounded by that clean modern look or sitting outside surrounded by such historic beauty.

pretty inside and out! :)

I'm with Cathy, I love the lack of advertising etc. that you see in so many cafes here in the US! Definitely a great looking place inside and out!

Kay said...

A spectacular location and another gorgeous and very cool cafe! You live in such a beautiful area!

I could sit there for many hours!

Looks modern - sleek and elegant. I like. Why that name banana?

I remember once a church organist did not know a good recessional hymn to play as the bishop and pastor left the building, so she decided on "Yes, We Have No Bananas."

True story.

I like both the inside and the outside.
Grand outside!
Stylish and simple inside.

What a place to take a coffee!

That's some view from the cafe.

I love sitting at outdoor tables like the one you show. What a place to sit and breathe in the atmosphere.

You are a wonderful ambassador to your country by broadcasting these beautiful pictures! I'm going there when I finish my present gig - if I'm not too old by then!

Not a bad view from that table. Coffee please.

I'd love to be sitting there in the warm air.
