21gramm and a whole lot of dogs
Today was one of those super fun days where everything is just perfect and you realise the life of a dog sitter and blogger is the right life for me!
I had Gracie, the lovely Hungarian Rescue dog staying with us for a couple of days and we had planned to meet up with our friend Kristina, owner of the brilliant Suzie and Vida. We always. know it will be high level fun with them around. So we decided to go to Tempelhoferfeld, as we had 5 dogs and normally three of those can not be let off a leash unless theres a fence to curtail the prey drive in the hunters. (Ernie, Vida & Gracie) They are perfect dogs but if your’e a regularly follower of my blog you will know Ernie, especially, will never come back if he sees wildlife. Tempelhoferfeld dog parks are huge and seem like fields, so its brilliant for the dog to be leash free and have the chance to run around without fear of losing them or risk one of them bringing us a bunny! (its happened before but thats another story)
After an huge amount of running around and playing, we went to 21gramm, a cafe I’ve been excited to visit for a long time. The friendly welcome we received when we arrived with 5 dogs made us feel totally at ease. The outside area of 21gramm is a good size, super pretty and relaxed. We chose to sit in a little cosy corner and immediately all the dogs were given cuddles and water from the staff.
Wow the food, let us just say it did not disappoint.!! Delicious fresh hot shakshuka with poached eggs came with plenty of bread for dipping. The Croque madame was oozing with grüyere cheese and topped with a fried egg over the layers of brioche came with a lovely salad, I was so full after that. The coffee was spot on. If we didn’t have the dogs I would have had a second coffee but as we know Eevee's patience is not brilliant
It was such a relaxed cafe with excellent food and brilliant service, a total winner for us and the dogs, and given its across the street from TempelhoferFeld makes it a perfect location. Obviously, we sat outside because 5 dogs inside a cafe is a push for anyone, but if you have just one dog inside it so pretty and welcoming too.
Eevee gives the whole experience 10 out of 10 and a bonus point for the lovely staff.
Thank you 21gramm
