On the German side of the Flensburg Fjord lies the picturesque village of Falshöft.  Here the Fjord opens out to the Baltic sea. The village is mostly known for its lighthouse where couples can get married. But it also has this beautiful little small Cafe, where they offer the most delicious cakes. We had an egg liqueur cake with Rote Grütze . Rote Grütze is a red berry pudding topped on the cake. Mmmm….

The pastel above shows a detail of the front door, which is very typical for the old farm houses in the  north of Germany.
