I propose that we have a coffee lounge named after  Lang Lang, or Bang Bang name it what you will.  :)

Hi compline,

In 2015 we can have a "real" coffee lounge or fika cafe.  With high powered computers, fast internet connections, and video conferencing, posting text to a message board is so 1990s. ;)

I can't think of a name for it though.

There is in Stockholm Cafe 60.  Maybe this could be "Cafe 88, 90, 92 and 102".  There are the Imperial Bösendorfer's 92 keys, the 102 keys of Stuart & Sons, and the 90 key grand piano was a special flat strung Erard concert grand model produced in the late 1800s.

Mvh,
Michael

The pertinent question is, do we get real coffee? If not them I'm lest that enthusiastic D;

Quite. Oh, and cake.

Wait... There's no cake.  The cake is a lie.

Ok, ok, I should have said,  virtual coffee lounge, you can bring your own coffee! 
Looks like I'm out numbered anyway.  :-\ :)

Do explain for those of us not as known as you're. What does said Lounge entails? Sounds like the Anything ... sub forum does the same. No coffee or cake either.

Hi senanserat,

Here are some fika related items at Cafe 60.  See, they can be here, too!  Just don't spill your kaffe or crumbs of biskvi, dammsugare, spettkaka, prinsesstårta, et c., into the message board here, please.




Mvh,
Michael

Hi compline,

Tell me about it . . . I am going to be out in Stockholm today, yet I don't like dental bills, so I shall have to abstain . . . maybe we are getting old! ;D

Biskvi is out of this world . . .





And don't ever visit Saluhall, because if you go there, you will be toast, my friend . . . toast . . .



Some delights are only for the young, I'm afraid.


Mvh,
Michael
