Even though I could hear the rain patter on my hotel window, I dragged myself out of bed at 5 am, with hopes of capturing the city of Lviv at sunrise. 3 of us ventured out. Our effort not in vain, as our senses were delighted with sights of narrow cobblestone streets glistening with rain and the beautiful blue light, even with clouds, slowly waking the sleeping city as it grew brighter. The seductive aroma of fresh pastries and deep rich coffee enticing us to stop and savour the moment with Vince Rees, mastermind of Cobblestone Freeway. All that before breakfast.

But the better coffee delight came when we ventured onward with our photography crew to Lvivska Kopalna Kavy, the Lviv Coffee Mine. If its sensory stimulation you’re looking for, along with a great cup of coffee, this would be the place to come. Yes, you actually descend into a mine…

There’s a great story… But here’s a peek.

      There is this cafe… That you actually enter the building and descend into the mine…hard hats and all.

      And they make the most spectacular flaming coffee…

      I can’t wait to go back to Ukraine… A feast for the senses…
