One of our residents (Brit) asked if we could do a Fika Cafe . So of coursei said yes. What is Fika you ask ( I did 😂)The Swedish word ”fika” means ”to have something sweet to eat, and something hot to drink”. It could be coffee or tea together with a small cookie, a cinnamon roll or a bakery good. And that we did, she introduced us to a Swedish almond heart pastry. It was delicious.
