a'love

Azerbaijan


High-backed chairs, diamond-faceted lamps and murals of giant cup-cakes give this well air-conditioned patisserie-cafe a distinctive atmosphere that attracts a primarily female clientele.

Right next door, a'love also has a completely different fast-food section, specialising in köz kebab (döner-like meat cut from a horizontal spit)
