The terrace

Sky-blue posts, a planked timber roof with a striped canvas awning along the road side, petunias in baskets over the tables and a tree behind them. The tables are plank timber, painted blue.

Sky-blue timber pergola posts under a planked timber roof, with a striped canvas awning along the road side, pink and white petunias hanging in baskets, and the taverna's standing red and white sign behind them

A whole table laid at once: the raw board at the back, the small plates in front of it.


Four photographs of the terrace and its tables. There is none here of the kitchen, none of the grill, and none of the terrace after dark — when there is one, it will go on this page.
