One of the best selection of preloved wear I've ever come across, but everyone knows that stuff comes at a price. If you do make a purchase, however, you're guaranteed to come out with something truly unique.The impeccably turned out salespeople at first seem intimidating, but they're quite nice (and multilingual!). This particular branch also houses a cafe, offering salads and sandwiches (one veggie option) as well as "psychoactive" teas.

I'm a sucker for views and the one looking across the Presqu'île is a pretty one. Due to its close promixity to the university, A.'s caters mainly to the student budget (around 8,-EUR for a meal) as well as the student schedule, which means no weekend service. During the week, however, the chic cantina really does serve as a center of respite for anyone with--forgive me--a lot on their plate and offers small reductions to that effect. The vegetarian selection is limited: two sandwiches, a salad, and a lasagna-type Armenian dish called soubeurrek filled with feta and parsley. The cucumber-and-beet gazpacho isn't half-bad, and certainly won't leave you complaining at 3,-EUR. Superb teas, too.

Light, airy, zen space with some outdoor seating. Love the mango lasse smoothie ($6) and vegan wrap ($5.75). A little overpriced, but super laidback. You're in Boulder, after all.

It was a searing August, many moons ago. I was cranky from the heat, and weary of all the ham that would always find its way into my meals. A chance left turn onto a side street led me to dinner to this restaurant, whose welcome was more memorable than its menu, although I did have a delicious gazpacho-like soup, ON THE HOUSE. I went twice during that week-long stay in the capital, but I think another visit will soon be in order to see whether or not they're still as accommodating, and if they've become more gastronomically inspired.

Claustrophobes beware! It's a classic case of supply and demand--of space, at least, clocking with three (and a half) tables. As there's nothing too spectacular on offer (vegetarian salad, shrimp ravioli, and of course, spring rolls), you surely don't have to trek all the way out here. However, I must say that this is hands down one of the--nay, THE--friendliest Vietnamese eatery I've been to, and I'm not just talking about the proprietors, either. At 3,- to 6,-EUR/portion, you'd probably want to save room for a little of everything, though you might want to pass if you really want to fill yourself up.

Why only three stars? Because I'm sure there are better places to get bagels. As I'm familiar with the Vienna-based shop, however, I feel very comfortable about going in. The folks at this particular branch are also very friendly.
Update, February 2008: They have since changed their name to Bagel Company.

Cute bagel shop in the Aussere Neustadt. The ingredients always seem super fresh and the one girl that I always saw there was always seems friendly. I can vouch for the Toscana (on a Parmesan-oregano bagel) and Veggie bagels, but they have eight other sandwiches, too. This is what I wish Einstein's could be. Then again, I'm glad there's only one of these shops.

A friend and I were walking past and did a double take, attracted by the sleek-looking chairs. Upon relaxing, we soon discovered that they were plastic, and not leather, but this didn't damper our evening as we laughed off about embarrassing teenage crushes. The espresso's OK, the ambiance even better--the lighting and music are set at the appropriate levels in order for you to enjoy your conversation with your partner(s). Service is also quite efficient...and yes, like about every other place in the neighborhood, BA Cafe offers monthly rotating exhibits, featuring painting and photography.

When I think of ice cream, I don't necessarily think of it as beautiful, or DESIGNER, yet shops like Bajo Cero exist to prove the opposite. You'd think you were walking into Colette for frozen goods, but the staff are surprisingly laidback and really, who can resist the temptation of a rose-petal flavored ice cream, if solely out of curiosity? And yes, it does taste like flowers! Take out your 2,50 scoop ("cucurucho") on the sidewalk and enjoy it watching the Glorieta de Quevedo.

Owned by the same folks as La Panza es Primero, and located right next to it. Prepare to enter a world of colorful and cheerful design, as your utensils are served in small plastic buckets and assorted Mexican paraphernalia scream at you from every angle. Yes, there are nachos (and very good ones, at that), but if you're looking for burritos/tacos/fajitas or--dog forbid--SOPAPILLAS, you're at the wrong place, because none of this is available here. But (if you're meat-friendly) you can have a whack at their specialty, steak fillet with huitlacoche.
