Renowned chef Peter Scholte bravely ignores the failing “curse” of his Leidseplein location bringing to table a posh little boite with an international influence, from tuna to escalope and truffles to brie. Besides a full-sized dining room, the venue also offers small sitting rooms where you can lavish on cuba libres, mojitos and small and delicate snacks like small dishes with wagyu beef or asparagus with truffles. Next door, but also part of the complex, a little shop specializes in take away desserts, a novelty for Amsterdam.
