Niemeijer
Creative French · Bib
€€
Janick and Leonie Niemeijer's light and airy restaurant is lively, yet has a distinctly natural and serene feel to it. The couple have put together an extensive à la carte menu and take great pride in their garden, from which they source vegetables and honey, among other produce. These are showcased in creative dishes that often incorporate a nod to Dutch culinary tradition. For instance, the chef glazes locally farmed duck in honey from his own apiary and roasts it to a perfect medium-rare. He serves it with various textures of kale, a sauerkraut jus, red cabbage compote, purée of Oudwijker F

Having sold De Loohoeve, Marleen and Jeroen Brouwer moved a little further north to Groningen, where they have given the Theresiakapel a facelift.

This is no run-of-the-mill restaurant: upon entering, you are led through the state-of-the-art kitchen. The two chefs have joined forces in the kitchen to better express their creativity.

A centuries-old beamed ceiling, glossy parquet flooring, sleek furniture design and views of the beautiful Prinsentuin walled garden – you really dine in style at Groningen's Nassau. The chef knows the importance of an intense sauce and loves working with top-notch produce such as langoustine and Anjou pigeon, which he showcases in elaborate dishes. For instance, he elevates hamachi, along with a medley of vegetables and seasonings, with a Thai-style sauce made with miso, coconut and lemongrass. His plant-based creations are equally remarkable.
