This gorgeous park in Oost meanders gently over 7 acres of beautiful land. Back in the 1700s, the park was actually part of a wealthy estate, with gardens designed by landscape architect J.T.P. Bijhouwer, in the middle of Watergraafsmeer. Known as the art and culture garden, Park Frankendael is a real draw because of its cultural-historical, ecological & botanical elements. De Pure Markt!

If you’ve got a bike, then the 15-minute ride from city centre out to Park Frankendael is more than worth it. This restaurant is housed in a grand home & also boasts a sunny terrace in a romantic garden. The chef focuses on the Slow Food Movement, churning out dishes with authentic, sustainably-produced, regional & seasonal ingredients. Be sure to come hungry.

In the mood for some seriously good coffee? Head to Wakuli to satisfy all of those caffeine cravings. Don't be afraid to ask about the beans of the day, the baristas are always more than happy to talk all about the various blends on offer and send you home with a bag of the freshest grinds. 

Homemade ramen noodles, simple ingredients and premium sake. As the name implies, Fuku is all about its ramen. Perfectly slurpable and oozing with flavour, the ramen is delicious but wait until you try the izakaya plates.
