About 30 minutes outside the old city of Tallinn in Estonia is where you will find 180degrees. This two Michelin star awarded restaurant is ran by Austrian chef Mathias Diether. Housed in a lovely modern, the interior is as nice and modern as the exterior. The restaurant is divided into two parts: a lounge area…

Ikarus – Fine dining Red Bull style
Opposite the terminal building of Salzburg Airport is the Red Bull Hangar. The hangar is home to some classic aircraft, as well as a bar and Ikarus Restaurant. Before moving into the restaurant, an (optional) aperitif is served in ‘Mayday Bar’. The bar has a terrace overlooking the aircraft (and other items, including Formula 1…
Lunch at the oldest restaurant in the world
The old city center of Salzburg is home to some good restaurants. Some with and some without Michelin star. In addition to this, it is also home to the world’s oldest restaurant. Founded in 803, Sankt Peter Stiftskulinarium has been around for over 1200 years and has had (amongst others) one of the world’s best…
SENNS Restaurant – A restaurant with all the bells (and whistles)
On a recent trip to Salzburg, I had a chance to visit SENNS Restaurant. This restaurant holds two Michelin stars. Located outside the city centre, it isn’t an obvious choice for an evening out. A taxi is needed to get here, costing an additional EUR 50-75. The building is gorgeous though and is well worth…
French “hospitality”
Every now and then, we have to travel for business. This is a great opportunity to visit restaurants that are simply too far for a day-trip. Where the trips themselves are not as much fun as people like to think, we do enjoy the meals… Preparation is half the fun for a vacation and with…
De Schans – Fine dining around the corner
We do not mind driving a while for a good meal, but we have recently found that we don’t have to sit in the car for hours. Just a 15-minute drive from our home base, we have found a wonderful fine dining restaurant called “De Schans”. Located just outside the town of Montfoort, it is…
Restaurant Monarh – A modern restaurant in a historic setting
Tilburg may not be on the top of the list for tourists visiting Holland. However, when in the neighbourhood, it is definitely worth a visit. The city center is a nice place for a walk, with some old churches and nice shops. After the walk, we bet you can use a good meal, either at…
Librije’s Zusje – A perfect meal at De Librije’s little sister
With three Michelin stars, De Librije is probably one of the Netherland’s best-known restaurants. For the past five years, the owners have had an advising role in Librije’s Zusje, which is the Librije’s sibling in the Waldorf Astoria Amsterdam. This advising role will end on 1 January, when Lirbije’s Zusje will be renamed to Spectrum….
Senses Restaurant – Excellent food in downtown Amsterdam
When in Amsterdam for a fine-dining experience, The White Room, Vinkeles or Bord’eau are probably the most likely names you will be given. Recently, we have visited Wolf Atelier, which we considered a real hidden treasure. Having found that one, we went looking for more and we have found another one: Senses Restaurant. What got us…
Auberge de Veste – Delicious food with friendly service
Most of the well-known restaurants are in the big cities, like Amsterdam, Rotterdam and The Hague. This does not mean that there aren’t any good places in other cities. In Den Bosch, we have recently visited “Auberge de Veste” and discovered this really is a hidden treasure….. The restaurant is located in a nice old…
