designers and dolls in düsseldorf

Earlier this week I escaped Cambridge for a few days to visit my boyfriend's family in Düsseldorf. We walked around the harbour (full of wonderful restaurants and design shops) and strolled down the classy Kö, where we people watched and window shopped.

We ate sushi, amazing cakes from Leysieffer, and nutella and tartufo ice cream from Claudio's (dreamy...); and one evening we went to Sub, a former underground station that's now a fantastic nightclub.
