I had the special chicken in Greek style and my companion had a classic with ham, cheese and mushroom. Both were excellent: we ate every bite. Also, you do get great service here which is unusual in Utrecht and makes this place extra special.

The portion was so generous, that it could have easily been a lunch on it's own. But the dish of the day was THE highlight of the experience. It was a modern twist on Stamppot with a home-made rookworst and rich gravy and a truly delicious dish. If you ever want to try this Dutch classic, De Klub is the place to go (if they still have it on the menu).

We stopped in here the other morning for breakfast, and really enjoyed it…read more We arrived shortly after they opened, and were told to take a seat wherever we liked. The inside of the restaurant is nice, with darker teal velvet bench seating, smaller tables, and chairs, that give it a cozy chic feeling inside. I had a dirty chai, which was very tasty, and served in a tall glass. For breakfast, I had the triple omega - which was a thicker piece of toast, with avocado, a generous portion of salmon, two poached eggs and hollandaise. We will absolutely be back!

My favourite was their chicken karaage in the donut n chicken and we had ordered the chicken karaages as a separate appetizer later. The Katsu sandwich with brioche bread was delicious. The meat in the chicken avo was delicious paired with sourdough bread. Mushroom croquettes were satisfyingly tasty. French toast was my least choice, as they were dunked in the syrup. Would prefer the syrup to be provided separately. Must place to visit for an all day brunch.

It was very yummy and it left us so filled up that we had no dinner that evening. I love the casual ambiance of the place.

You can really notice they're going for a Michelin star and they're well on their way. As for the…read morefood, they're not quite there yet. The combinations work mostly, but some of the dishes on the safe side and sometimes they're lacking in execution (e.g. the iberico pork was slightly too salty and the plum sauce was perhaps a little bit too sour). Still, they get 5***** because of the extraordinary service. Although we dined through a special deal, never did we get the impression we received any lesser service. Moreover, when my dinner date hardly touched his desert because he didn't want to load up on on sugar (as if the all bread and beurre sel he gulfed down earlier that evening didn't contain any carbs.....sugar is evil, right......oi vey, men and their diets) the staff was kind enough to offer a cheese platter instead, with the option of me still attacking on the snubbed desert. So, a standing ovation for the service and a hooray for the food....

As starters there were little rolls of veal with truffled mayonnaise, oyster with red beet sorbet and a tatar from tunafish. First course was tatar from seabass with jalapeno-pepper, scallops and a little orangeice, acoompanied by a piece of roasted skin from chicken and a puree from avocados. Creative and very thoughtful combination. Second jumboshrimps in a light potatoe nest with spinach and a fine cream of vegetables aside served in the shell of the shrimp. Excellent in presentation and taste. Main course the fillet of venison with its sauce, perfectly cooked. A peachsorbet with mint tea finished that perfect dinner. As last time the perfectly chosen wine-service offered with the menu was a simple pleasure. ( 39,50EUR ) Strongly recommended to go there!

The bitterballen were exactly as they should be: crunchy outside, warm inside. We got mustard to go with it, but it seemed to much effort for staff to serve this on the tray.

I just found out about a "High tea" scene in Utrecht that I didn't even know existed - with…read moreBakkerswinker at the heart. It's an old bakery that has been around for almost 300 years. They have a bakery counter if you need things to take away. The dining room is located mostly in the cozy kelder that has windows looking out to a gracht that's adjacent. A group of five came hungry, and we chose high tea, since it's closest thing to brunch you can find. There are several different high tea options on the menu with focus on sweet, savory, or everything ranging from €20-30. There is also a good selection of a la carte items for €5-10. We were overwhelmed with an attack of food and tea. The food started with a scone, jam, and clotted cream course served with two giant pots of tea. Then we continued along (see my picture) and were served a tower of two plates of small sandwiches (five different varieties), bowls of soup, various kinds of quiche, and a plate of sweets, chocolates, and tartes. Two more pots of tea showed up with the main course and they brought one more at the end as a palate cleanser. Five pots of tea total. Don't miss the Lapsang tea. Impressive - fresh food made from scratch and fun staff with good service. Casual atmosphere. See you there for high tea sometime!
