She did recognize her.

“I almost directly recognised her but didn´t dare to say to her that I did. I´m more or less sure she didn´t recognise me. We chatted briefly about the weather and the café until her husband came to the table with their coffee.

They rather soon left the table and I then regretted not telling her I recognised her as my former teacher”

Of course she could say in a letter that she didn’t want or fell uncomfortable acknowledging it then, but decided to reconnect later
