According to Boyce, in the wall of the kitchen there was a niche and beside it was a lararium painting. It represented a sacrificial scene with the Genius and the tibicen, one on each side of an altar. On either side of them was a Lar. In the lower zone was a single serpent beside and altar.

Bibliog. “Not. Scavi”, 1910, p.265 e pianta.
Il triclinio era addossato al muro meridionale del giardino; davanti ad esso il terreno fu rinvenuto battuto per uno spazio semi-circolare che presenta piccole lastre di marmo confitte qua e la.
La mensa, rettangolare, presenta sul davanti una nicchietta semi-circolare; originariamente era ricoperta di segmenti a forma geometrica di marmo colorato. 
I tre letti erano ricoperti di cocciopesto e rivestiti, lateralmente, di intonaco dipinto; cocciopesto e intonaco sono andati distrutti. 
Anteriormente, le pareti verticali recavano, su fondo rosso, la raffigurazione di due Amorini, dei quali uno in atto di difendersi da un fagiano che tenta di beccare un grappola d’uva ch’egli ha nelle mani, l’altro in atto di bere il contenuto di una coppa, mentre con la destra respinge una pantera.”

According to Jashemski, the triclinium in the garden of VIII.7.10, was attached to the south wall.  On the sides of the triclinium, which were finished with painted plaster, two cherubs were painted on a red background: the one on the right was trying to ward off a pheasant that was attempting to peck at a bunch of grapes held by the cherub, the other cherub drinking from a bowl, while pushing back an animal, perhaps a leopard. There was a rectangular triclinium table with an incurving semicircle in front. To the north of the triclinium was an unusual masonry table, permitting food and drink to be stored in the covered interior.  This garden communicated with the large garden to the south, as well as to the garden to the north.

VIII.7.10 Pompeii. July 2005. Image of the north wall of garden area, that seems to still have a clear niche.
Photo courtesy of Pompeii Archaeological Research Project: Porta Stabia.
PARP: PS excavations in 2005 revealed a small semi-circular basin projecting from the north wall. 
This collected water from a spout that protruded from the wall. 
It was likely it was a settling tank and as there was no drain, water overflowed east along a pipe through the protruding wall into a small basin which in turn fed into a cistern mouth. 
Below this a very well preserved, completely intact cistern was found that was 2 metres deep, 1.5m wide and 7m long.
This indicates that a considerable amount of water was held here, with a system of settling tanks to keep it fresh.
