Before my drop off to Ivana Helsinki, I had a luncheon in Boulevardi's Cafe Ekberg, with beautiful Ina who had just arrived from Switzerland for a long weekend in Helsinki:) I never have a change, or have time, to go anywhere so it was ever so lovely to be able to sit down, relax, have something nice to eat and to catch up:) Thank you so much Ina!

Warm goat cheese salad, yummy! 

Ina had a Finnish Cinnamon Bun:)
