When I was brought here for dinner while visiting the Netherlands, I was a little bit skeptical…read moreabout the quality of the food. I was staying with friends in the village of Huizen and they swear by this place so I decided to relax and enjoy the experience. First, this place is an authentic Dutch pub which you can appreciate everywhere from the outside all the way to its interior decoration and reach history hanging on the walls. After enjoying a cold beer we were seated in our table and proceed to look at the menu. Needless to say, My friends had to translate everything for me from the appetizers to the dessert. After discussion the options on the menu and the seasonal specials, I went with a white asparagus soup and a special cute of veal accompanied by mushrooms sauce and veggies. Well, let me tell you something; one of the best meals I had during my stay. Everything from the bread to the deserts was not only fresh but heavenly delicious. White asparagus were on season and the soup was a must! The meat, juicy and tender and cooked to perfection. Lastly, since we all asked for different sauces, I got the change to try everything from pepper to blue cheese. Omg! This place left me speechless. Never judge a book by its cover and trust the locals; they know better!
