autumn in antwerp


fiskebar, originally uploaded by wood & wool stool.

A visit to Antwerp always feels like a mini vacation.

This time the M HKA is the main reason for our visit. A long walk through the 'other' Antwerp, brought us to wonderful places. Walking across the Marnixplaats, I fell in love with the terrace of the Fiskebar. On the other side of the street is Vitrin, also a very nice café. And I had my first Bionade at Bitter Zoet after the museum visit.

    What flavour Bionade did you go for. I love Holunder which I guess is Elderberry in English...

    he! dat ken ik! vlak bij mijn moeder.
    zo wordt een bekende plek ineens heel bijzonder ...
    en heb je de bomen in de buurt met gebreide boombandjes ook gezien?

    Leuk he, Antwerpen...ik vind de straatjes rond het Hendrik Consciencepleintje zo leuk. Er zit ook heel creatieve galerie, Wollondilly heet ie geloof ik.

    visited Antwerp a couple of years ago and was so impressed and inspired by the city - mint tea and flat breads filled with cream cheese and honey at a Turkish stall in the martket were my high lights!
