Around town Aachen
A friend recommended this cafe for their Reisfladen or ‘rice cake.’ Yummmmy.
“Reisfladen (Tarte-au-riz) is a true European dish – equally at home in the parts of Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands that converge near Aachen, and a big hit in the city too.
Visitors and locals alike love the melt-in-the-mouth rice pudding which is oven-baked until golden-brown. The Belgian variation contains more egg, and the Aachen one is lighter in texture.
Aachen’s bakeries offer top-quality wares, and each has its own speciality. Obstfläden (Tarte-aux-fruits) topped with cherries or apricots, or even apple-pear jam, is also always worth taking a coffee-break for.”
