We don’t know who lit the fire, but Amsterdam has massively stepped up its culinary game over the last few years, boasting a slew of new Michelin-starred restaurants. One of our absolute darlings of this new crew is De Juwelier, a warm, fine-dining spot laid out over two floors on the Utrechtsestraat. While we love popping in whatever the season, we think De Juwelier is a particular gem in winter, as the menu leans heavily toward offal and other rich dishes.
The slightly edgier sister location of Salvo Bakehouse offers just as much when it comes to custard-filled cornetti and pillowy maritozzi. Grab a slice of their iconic cheesecake and a sparkling matcha lemonade, and enjoy with the postcard-perfect canal views of Amsterdam’s charming Nine Streets.
