Next on our top list is Bridges, inspired by local master-chef Ron Blaauw.
Located at Oudezijds Voorburgwal 197, Bridges produces ‘Dutch fish with a French twist’, something that we definitely recommend.
Along with an impressive wine list, the fine dining restaurant offers creative dishes.
For example, langoustines appear in a ‘bonbon’ with cucumber cream and hangop (a fresh curd cheese).
Also, the perfectly crusted Brill comes with a stalwart retinue of smoked eel, cauliflower, chanterelle mushrooms and spicy sauce.
If you’re not in the mood for seafood, Bridges also offers an excellent raw bar, if you’re willing to try something light.
