Highly Original Restaurants

Have you ever dined in an extraordinary restaurant?
And by it, i don't mean extraordinary dishes like they are served in molecular gastronomy at El Bulli in Spain.

I meant, have you ever dined above the clouds or under the deep blue sea? No...?
Maybe you should plan your next trip around these 6 Restaurants i've picked out for you.

Ithaa Undersea Restaurant




The world's first all-glass underwater restaurant opened in April 2005 in Rangalifinolhu, Maldives.
Ithaa  which means "pearl" in Dhivehi, is a five star restaurant that seats only 12 guests.
That is also the reason the restaurant is booked up to 14 months in advance.

This restaurant is submerged five meters below the Indian Ocean and offers a 360 panoramic view on corals and marine life.
Imagine you're dining on fish and its mother is looking right down on you...

I think lunchtime would be the perfect time to enjoy your meal here, since the view is at it's best when the sun is shining.

 Glück und Seligkeit 


This could be my favorite proposition in the today's post because the church carried my name.
This ancient  Martini Church has been transformed into a restaurant and opened its doors in 2005.
It is to be found in Bielefeld in Germany and calls itself nowadays Joy and Happiness.


I have a thing for Churches and this one, even if it is restaurant now, never has lost any of its magic.




At.Mosphere


This is the highest restaurant in the world and you are literally dining on top of the world.
It is placed in the 124.th  floor of the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.




And this would be your view at the Emirates.
It is breathtaking and nothing for those with fear of heights.

Snow Village


Each year in late November, about one thousand trucks loads of snow are used to create the Snow Village in Finland - a complex of ice and snow, changing shape and size every winter.



If you are interested in lappish food, Snow Village has two restaurants at your service.

The Redwoods Treehouse


The last restaurant i am presenting is a huge Treehouse near Auckland, New Zealand.


Nestled amongst a redwood forest in the picturesque Warkworth region, this restaurant offers you a dining experience which bring your childhood dreams on a new level.
I think everyone once dreamt of having a treehouse for him or herself... so did i.

Remembering...

Do you remember these guys i planted last fall... on their best days my herbs looked like this:



Well, i still don't quite know what happened but they have never gotten over this mediocre stadium...

As i still haven't given up on my plans of having fresh herbs whenever i wanted them, i had to come up with a new plan...

We are in the midst of spring, which required a redecoration of my balcony: i purchased a table and two chairs, planted yet-to-become gorgeous flowers... and have two boxes reserved for basil, rosemary and mint... this time i gave up on cilantro, chive and parsley.....We'll see how the guys like the thermal environment on my balcony...


the basil looks good and it is growing and growing... the smell is divine


That's quite a difference don't you think?


I am ready for summer...
