Khartoum


There's a good selection of taste-bud temptations on the menu of this upbeat cafe, from tasty sandwiches and frondy salads to appetising cakes and tantalising pastries. Everything's prepared fresh and attractively presented. It's set in the middle of a roundabout (fear not, there's plenty of shade).
