UKRAINE - Odesse

These cards are from swap in official postcrossing.  The card shows the city of Odessa and the second card show Poppy seed buns.  Looks yumm....Now, I am hungry for some bun..

"Odessa or Odesa is the third largest city in Ukraine with a population of 1,003,705. The city is a major seaport and transportation hub located on the northwestern shore of the Black Sea. Odessa is also an administrative center of the Odessa Oblast and a multiethnic major cultural center."

The description at back of the card says; 

Compat is very well known in Odessa and far  beyond.

This is more than compote that children have drunk gallons after getting tired of running around the yard.  We are talking about the one that has gathered all the familiar dishes from our childhood and introduced them in cafes, which you will find delicious, very cozy and fun.

You are welcome to visit Compot for breakfast, freshly baked croissants and pastry every day from 8 am.  = This refer to the Compot Cafe.=
