Bars & Cafes in Old Town Riga, Latvia | Travel Guide & Vlog 2018
Winter is coming in Riga, Latvia so it’s time to explore some new bars and cafes to hang out in during the day or to enjoy the nightlife! We had a Sunday Funday trying out Fat Cat café, Easy Beer, and B-Bar – they were all great! Also, I added in some history and facts of a few of the buildings in Old Town Riga!

Flaming Sambuca at the Kiwi Bar, Riga, Latvia - 19th January, 2015
Sambuca is an Italian anise-flavoured, usually colourless, liqueur, to read more about it, click here: .
Please forgive this slight detraction from the usual type of film that I upload, but I found this to be quite novel, and I wanted to share it with others. On a recent visit to Riga in my favourite bar, the Kiwi Bar, Sambuca is served in an innovative way. I've had a flaming Sambuca before but not in this way. The drink is prepared as follows:
1. Sambuca is poured into a brandy type glass.
2. Three coffee beans are added to the Sambuca (these stand for faith, hope and charity).
3. The brandy glass is balanced on its side on a tumbler.
4. The Sambuca is ignited with a cigarette lighter or match, and the brandy glass is rotated so the flame coats the whole of the inside of the rotating glass.
5. After 20 seconds, the brandy glass is lifted and the Sambuca is poured into a tumbler, the brandy glass is there placed into the tumbler to create a vacuum, and extinguish the flame.
6. The brandy glass is placed upside down on the bar, and a straw underneath it, which is then inhaled to get a 'hit' of the Sambuca fumes.
7. The Sambuca is then 'shotted'!
I found this an entertaining and novel way to serve the drink.

Review: Avalon Hotel, Riga, Latvia - January, 2015
I recently stayed at the Avalon Hotel, whilst on a short break to Riga. The hotel is within a 5 minute walk of Riga Central Station, and is only a street away from Riga Old Town. A taxi to the hotel from the airport cost 15 Euro.
I paid 208 Euro with booking.com for a superior room with queen size bed, which looked over the railway line at the front of the hotel. The room was warm, quiet and very inviting. The bed was soft and comfortable. The bathroom was modern and shiny with a shower over the bath, and complimentary shower gel and shampoo provided daily. With my superior room I also received a voucher for a complimentary two course evening meal in the hotel restaurant. This was a good bonus, although I only ate there once, and wasn't particularly enamoured with the food.
The breakfast buffet was much better and was quite extensive. On weekdays breakfast lasts until 10:00, and at 10:00 the staff clear it away promptly - a little too promptly for my liking, and this needs addressing as it is not comfortable being rushed to grab food before it disappears.
Reception staff and cleaners were very friendly and helpful. The building is centered around an internal central atrium. Rooms which are not superior face on to this, so in my opinion it is worth paying extra to upgrade to a superior room.
Overall I liked this hotel, and would certainly recommend it to others visiting Riga.
