Zanzibar Coffee House

One is surely guilty of being on the Lonely Planet trail when the people next to you at breakfast turn up at a café in a completely different part of town for lunch. While this undoubtedly says a lot about Western so called “individuality”, good coffee has a certain and near universal draw. The special of the day at “Zanzibar Coffee House” was poached egg on avocado toast which brought back fond memories from Berlin but also Tomtebo escapism. Otherwise, Stone Town was the gem I expected it to be with Zoroastrian temples, the house where Freddie Mercury grew up and a beach promenade that made me think of Batumi. Tomorrow, it is time to cross the island and explore its eastern shore.
