Piloersemaborg, a monumental place in Groningen

after our shoppings looking over the very busy Grote Markt in Groningen.

  Many Germans visiting the Groningen Easter market: lots of plants and flowers for sale. We didn't know, phew soooo busy

breakfast at our B&B: all regional and home made

After breakfast we cycled the North West region of Groningen. Although there was a lot of wind, we also had some sunshine AND a great scenery.

another 'Borg'; the Allersma borg

early lambs

 

our 6 course dinner with surprising ingredients and great wines.

Oyster - appetizer

loved this salad

a yummie fish soup

the meringue of mushrooms was super cool

We liked the green apples sorbet, but the blue cheese creme brulee should have been more pronounced and strong in our view.
