I spent a fun day in Den Haag with the American Baking Company. You know it’s a good day when you get home and discover cinnamon bun frosting in your hair!
I really do like Den Haag and want to spend more time exploring the city. It’s got some really beautiful spots and a nice mix of old and new architecture.
My aunt used to live there, i’m sure it has changed a lot! I like the old architecture a lot more then the new stuff, it has character, the new buildings are a bit to sterile to me!

I like both old and new architecture, although I think newer buildings can be a bit hit or miss. I appreciate the mix of architectural styles in Den Haag and the sheer monumentality of some of the big buildings. There are some really lovely older buildings just a few streets away from these skyscrapers.
That sounds fun! What’s the American Baking Company? Is that part of an Expat club or just a local cafe?
American Baking Company is an actual baking company based in Den Haag. It’s run by a couple of friends of mine. Their desserts are to die for, so if you’re ever in Den Haag, go to Coffee & Company, where they have a selection, or you can usually find them at the Sunday Market in Amsterdam. https://www.facebook.com/AmericanBakingCompany
