On the last day of our pure foodie tour in Skåne we went to the island of Hven, located close to Denmark and easy to reach by ferry. We were lucky to have nice, sunny weather, which made it a real treat to explore the island by bike! After a guided tour at Tycho Brahe museum (a local nobleman from the 16th century known for his astronomical skills) we were ready for our second stop: lunch on the terrace! Read more »
Hotel Rusthållargården is located in a quiet and peaceful spot next to the Kullaberg Nature Reserve. The restaurant uses local, organic produce, sustainable fish and seafood. Coffee and tea are organic and fair trade. From the hotel you have a nice view of the colourful houses at the waterfront. The four-star hotels rooms are spread across three villas: blue, green and yellow coloured. My bed room was in the blue villa. Read more »

They offer five flavours or types: a mix of different potato varieties, root vegetable crisps, potato crisps with dill and chives, or with liquorice and plain old delicious ready salted crisps.

It’s a good idea for any restaurant to have veggie dishes on the menu. Read more »
