Why? These beautiful delicate flowers are packed with fragrant yellow pollen that makes the most delicious summer cordial.

Matt and Elly is a small micro brewery, bar and restaurant is near the Musical Theatre in Basel. It has a large terrace area outside and prides itself in offering their own craft beers and locally sourced food and plant based options for the environmentally conscious diner. The bar is very arty, cool and there is a mellow vibe to this place which is terribly inviting.
