Restaurant De Nieuwe Winkel
At De Nieuwe Winkel everything revolves around plants. It is a restaurant with two Michelin stars for its cuisine and a green star from Michelin for sustainability. Chef Emile van der Staak is concerned with sustainability and the future of the world. Partly for this reason, the kitchen is predominantly plant-based, organic and seasonal. The restaurant is located in a former orphanage that was once to be demolished but has been preserved by activists. De Nieuwe Winkel has been located in the building since June 2019. The menu changes often, that's why we don't have one online. The examples are mostly from old menu's. But what is certain is that you will be surprised by all the flavors. There is a choice between a six- and nine-course menu, and a three-course menu is also possible during the week. Reservations are necessary, and also far in advance: for example, they are completely booked in 2023. Fortunately, there is a reserve list. + More info- European

Café De Opstand
De Opstand is a collective café, which means that the employees work on the basis of equality. There is no boss, everyone is equal and decisions are made together. It is very important for De Opstand that everyone is welcome. Special events are therefore organized to confirm this. For example, you have a drag show and a 'trans' evening. Live music is also often played. For the vodka lovers among us, every first Wednesday of the month you are welcome for Vodka Wednesday. You can also drink something else, of course. Officially, De Opstand is a vegetarian cafe, but all snacks are vegan except for the toasted sandwich. + More info- European
