A couple of weeks ago we visited Villa Augustus, a restaurant (and hotel) in Dordrecht. I knew they have several gardens, and while I'm always in for trying out new restaurants, I was also very curious for their gardens, now that I'm in my garden fase (as you might have noticed :).
It was a sunny day, so we lunched outside on the terrace, where you can overlook the vegetable gardens. The food was delicious and special, I had a salad with pansies and octopus terrine, yum. After our lunch we wandered through the gardens and enjoyed the views and the sun.
And if you ever visit Villa Augustus, don't forget to take a look at their market shop! They sell the most lovely things, from notebooks, to tableware, childrens toys and supplies for your garden. Especially the bookcorner was a fun suprise, as they are one of the few shops that sell my father's children's books :)
On the last photo's you can see the wisteria that covers the building of the restaurant. Two of the photo's show the wisteria last month, when WJ and I visited and the wisteria still had flower buds. The other two show the wisteria in full bloom, as I visited the place last week again, see next post!
