Belmo Cafe is a delightful coffee and pastry shop in West Berkeley, a short walk from Strawberry Creek Park. I bought a fruit tart and a piece of baklava. The owner gave me a sample of zlabia (pastry in sugar syrup) on the house! All three were flavorful and delicious. I can't wait to return, and to bring friends.
