velvet, chiffon & caviar


booked through the internet for two nights at the Radisson SAS hotel, Leipzig, a town in the Saxony area, an important centre for the publishing community and book trade.
checked in, hunger striked. went down to the lobby lounge and ordered some quick food. simple sandwiches, refreshingly tasty.
lying back on the velvet cushions, glancing out towards the large viewing windows towards the town centre, the contrast between hasty crowd and the light music, wrapped around with chiffon finished interior, was simply too comforting.
on the manual in the restaurant next door, they have salmon, truffles and caviar, suggested to be accompanied with wines of a specific brand and vintage...all without a price!
i thought the air dried beef sandwich was enough to keep me happy for the day.
