This small Frech restaurant tucked away on a side street in Utrecht has become my favorite place to go for a special or celebratory meal. It's a small restaurant that seats maybe 15-20, so definitely call ahead for a reservation. I've been four times, and only once has there been a waitress serving diners. All of the other occasions the kind chef-owner was the one who did everything. It's so nice to see him in the kitchen preparing and cooking each individual order.
The menu is small, usually a choice of out of three starters, three main courses, and a choice of two desserts or cheese platter. Dishes can be ordered individually, but I prefer the prix-fixe option. The menu changes occasionally, but some of my favorite dishes include the escargo, the duck breast with a caramel coriander sauce (omg so good), the lamb shank. I also had what was probably the best cheesecake of my life here, though with that said I've not been disappointed with any of their desserts. The mango tiramisu was another standout option.
I can't recommend this restaurant highly enough. Everything is delicious and prepared with such attention to detail that it wows me each time. The owner is incredibly gracious and a true master of his craft. read more
