Memories from Süd-Tirol

Lots of hats...


and lots of prosecco!


Jerusalem-artichoke/topinambour soup, with small pumpkin dices


and pasta with seppie, a type of squid


Walking in het mountains


Eating in het mountains: speck-knödel with salad and noodle soup with beef. Speck is a type of bacon which you find everywhere in this region. The bread is also very typical, with cumin seeds.


Apfelstrudel with vanilla sauce, of course!


Nice tyrolian architecture




You can get apple-carrot juice, freshly made, just about anywhere. There are loads of apples in this region and their taste is delicious. The 'white' (Hefeweizen?) beer from Bavaria tastes good too.


In this season you can eat many dishes with chestnuts, such as chestnut parfait, a type of semifreddo.


Nice design, by Matteo Thun


Great wine


Fantastic mignardises


and don't forget the grappa!


Perfect cappucino



Food lovers, Süd-Tirol is definitely a place to go ;-)
