Daalder

Top choice in Jordaan & the West


An unassuming black facade conceals a spectacular interior with terrazzo floors, a marble bar and designer lighting. Daalder serves unforgettable contemporary Dutch cuisine. Surprise menus might span a lobster meringue amuse-bouche with red seaweed foam, to scallop carpaccio with coriander-infused gin gel, lamb neck with black-garlic mousse and caramel-centred stroopwafel cake with speculaas (spiced biscuit) crumb and white-pepper ice cream.

Menus are zero choice but dietary requirements can be accommodated with advance notice.
