YES YES YES!
Now THIS is a meal worth traveling for.
If you want to impress someone in your life, this is the place to go. I'm going to go ahead and say that it's one of my favorite restaurants in the *world*. So many meals that I've had have started to blur together for me, but this one is a major stand-out.
The restaurant is situated on Vlaeykensgang, a secret street in the old part of town, so your evening starts with a bit of a trip back to the 16th Century... (except this trip back in time has martinis!) Starting with finding the place, it is a whole experience, more than a dinner out at a restaurant.
We always order a la carte, but it seems as if most people decide to do the tasting menu. The interior, the service, the food is all impeccable. The cocktails are terrific (they're not always so good in Europe) and the wine is totally amazing. There is a cozy little bar in the back, if you want to take it long into the night. I have always found the crowd and the staff to be really friendly. Discreet, but friendly.
I can't recommend this place enough.
