    A German Brunch

    July 29, 2013

    Some of you will remember a post i wrote a couple of months ago about a cute vintage shop owned by the lovely tania. In my interview, tania talked about making use of her ‘shop kitchen’ and introducing some styled events, dinner soirees et cetera.

    Well, here is the first of these events. A 30’s berlin cabaret club german brunch!

    Unfortunately i already had other plans, but managed to pop in on my way to the farmers market to take a few pre-brunch snaps!

    Anyone recognise antoni from antoni & alison. Who knew, apparently him and tania are best mates! I loved antoni’s fancy dress efforts. Brunhilde anyone?

    I’m sure everyone had a great time and ate and drank well into early evening. Can’t wait to see what’s next up on the events list. Tania, any ideas?
