Wolf Atelier

Top choice in Jordaan & the West


Atop a 1920 railway swing bridge, a glass box with pivoting windows is the showcase for experimental chef Michael Wolf's wild flavour combinations: hazelnut-crusted foie gras, langoustine tartare with hollandaise, oxtail velouté with daikon, and blueberry crème brûlée with blackberry Chantilly cream and raspberry dust. The 360-degree views are magical at night; diners can linger for a drink until 1am.
