De Kas
A fine-dining restaurant inside a converted 1926 municipal greenhouse, cooking a daily menu from its own gardens and nursery.
The call
Worth it if you are watching the budget and you only have one day.
Why
- 01
You eat under soaring glass among the herbs and vegetables that end up on your plate, in a light-flooded room that feels more botanical garden than dining room.
Our read - 02
