On the Isle of Wight, the most surprising place to visit is surely the beaches with the dinosaurs' footprints but the Garlic Farm is also very interesting and the food is really food.
Here are some pictures I took there.
On this farm, they have a hundred of different kind of garlic. Their shapes and seizes vary according to their origins. They are very proud of the Elephant Garlic. This garlic has a very thick stalk and a very beautiful flower. The stalk can be prepared like you would an asparagus and has a definite yet subtle garlic taste.
On these two shots, you can see the flower that blooms at the top of the Elephant Garlic's stalk. The colour has deep red and purple shades and the smell though a bit garlicky is still very sweet.
I really advise you to go to the Garlic Farm should you decide to visit the Isle of Wight.
