Spring in London

In the beginning of May, my husband and I have spent a few days in London. I was very happy about the weather-actual spring for the most part! After just arriving into the city and on the way to the hotel, this was one of the first pictures I took. More to follow!

Pancakes in wine chateau

While in Tara, most of the days we had lunch or dinner at restaurant Javor. They serve traditional Serbian food, which I love and miss so. I cook Serbian food a lot but since the quality of the ingredients is not the same, mostly because there is not enough sunshine in Sweden, it rarely ends up tasting like it should. Now, about what I actually wanted to talk about-these pankaces. OMG!!! They were the best pancakes in wine chateau I have ever tried. With a big smile on my face I did thank the chef for the experience. :D They were perfect-sweet but just enough, plenty of walnuts, a slight hint of alcohol and covered in that beautiful light yellow foam. I have to try and recreate them!

Eklekton tavern and inland scenery

For lunch we drove inland to Eklekton tavern. 

It is a family owned restaurant serving traditional Greek food. 

Garden was so beautiful, so dreamy! I took many pictures! :D

Food was proper homemade so it was hard to choose between the dishes they were serving that day. 

We opted for Imam which is onion and tomato stuffed aubergine served with roast chicken. Both V and my sister still talk about it. It really was that good!

They were not serving desserts but were nice and offered us some fruit and fruit preserve. 

This restaurant is just another reason to visit Karpathos-authentic, simple food in the most beautiful environment. 

On the way back to the city, passing by endless olive tree fields. 

And an old church…
