i’m always on the look-out to discover new places in my hometown antwerp, so when i saw pretty pastel pictures popping up of MIRLO’S, i put it on my to-do list. those lists tend to get super long before i ever get to check any item off, because traveling with a little baby will do that to your life. but this place was easy enough to visit with little juliet in tow – the pretty bathroom even had a changing table and everything.

i’m pretty sure juliet also didn’t mind spending some time here on a sunday thanks to the pretty pink walls everywhere. i myself was taken by the nice selection of goodies on sale, the mint-colored smeg behind the counter and the beautiful cups of coffee that were served. i love that this place serves a full-on breakfast ànd good coffee – a combination you don’t see too often. so i’m definitely going back here, with or without baby daughter.
