Last Sunday me, my mom and my lovely little red-haired sister went for some family time in a new french-style pastry-shop in Old Riga called GU.

It's a new shop and a real discovery for everyone, who is searching for a nice quiet place with a touch of Parisian charm.
The atmosphere is created by the smell of good pastry, coffee, French music playing and a homely feeling in general. The kitchen is quite interesting, the oven and the table are right where the counter is, so you can sip on your coffee or tee and watch cakes being baked at the same time. And they have a piano in the corner giving it all even more an air of a very nice and friendly home, as well as magazines to read while your enjoying your morning croissants. The owner is French, so you also might get a chance to practice your language skills a bit.

As for the pastry, I enjoyed it a lot too. Not too sweet, with a balanced flavor. The apple claufoutis was quite like the apple cakes our grandmas bake.
So a positive review from me.
