Dutch Garden Restaurant

The German kings and emperors dominated the Netherlands in the 10th and 11th century, so I guess that it shouldn’t be a surprise to learn that the Dutch Gardens Restaurant is more German than Dutch. After all it was King Henry of Germany that liberated the area from Viking rule around 920AD.

There are Dutch Gardens across the globe, the definition or description given to a particular type of rectangular garden space often enclosed within hedges or walls. So the name fits the outer seating area, but this little place is German on the inside, German throughout the menu and German across the spigots of available drafts to choose from. Actually, this is the reason one should slow down on State before blinking and passing the place by, the beers are German, and if you need something to eat with your drink, then I’d recommend the wurst as the best.
