Even though I've never dined here, I take lunch at Pandarve quite regularly and I find it to be a…read morerestaurant with great food and a quality to price ratio that is nothing short of phenomenal. The lunchmenu is limited (about 15 dishes) but every single choice on the menu is spectacular in its own way, served in a way that is easy on the eyes, with a well thought out balance between all the basic tastes, for a price of about 7/8 euro. The only downside seems to be the fact that Pandarve is not exactly a well kept secret so it's often packed and difficult to get a table. Even so, the food is so good that it's always worth the wait!

An overall incredible pancake house in the middle of a beautiful forest like park just outside of…read moredowntown Utrecht. My great friend and I were in Utrecht for a couple of days and decided to rent bikes and join the crowd and bike all around town. I had heard of this legendary pancake house in the woods and after a little bit of research realized it would make the perfect bike excursion for the two of us. So, we got all fitted and fixed up on our rental bikes and wearing NO helmets, started GPSing our way out of downtown, headed for the Theehuis Rhijnauwen. It wasn't too bad getting to the entrance to the forest, only a few close scrapes, but once we crossed over, we were biking in the open air with the most beautiful green spaces surrounding us. The rest of the ride was pretty fantastic. We saw friends biking in parallel sync, chatting away, and only wished that I was able to master my bicycle enough to do that too. Anyway, we arrived soon enough and found a spot to lock up our bikes. The place was hopping, but we got a table outside pretty easily. We were looking out on the greenest grassy field with two mini donkeys prancing around on a grassy knoll. The ONLY downside was that I had pre-ordered a tea service for the two of us, which was not great food-wise. I watched so many plates of big pancakes pass by longingly. Our tea service food was a lot of ok sweets and some salami, and then more sweets. Oof. On the other hand, there was no way I was going to let the disappointment of the food ruin the overall magic. Every time I looked over at one of those mini Dutch donkeys prancing around, they winked right back at me.
