The cafe is quite big and also has a terrace in front of it. There are a lot of seats and tables but still they could be all taken if you come here during the weekend because it's such a popular place. You can come here for coffee with pastries, lunch with sandwiches/salads and a fresh juice or drinks and snacks. I tried a cheese cake with berry rose sauce and beetroot nut cake and they were both delicious. The coffee is also nice. The interior is lovely. Lots of plants and cute decoration and the whole place just has this super chill vibe. The staff is friendly and the prices are good. This is my new favorite place in Utrecht!

Finally, I definitely would eat and come back again anytime soon when I visit Amsterdam someday!

I love Meneer Smakers on the Nobelstraat and the new Meneer Smakers Ledig Erf definitely is a…read morewelcome addition to the family! After months of anticipation I one day found myself across the street at Café Ledig erf (review will follow, not a fan) with classmates as a little goodbye "thing" and then suddenly saw it: Meneer Smakers Ledig Erf! It's here! It's open! I immediately texted le boyfriend about having burgers as an early dinner, but he had plans and luckily my two besties were sitting beside me and had time for an early dinner. In fact it was perfect for them as one still had work and the other had plans in Den Bosch. Thus a three-way burger date was born! Now, how does Smakers Ledig Erf compare to the original Smakers? Well, it has everything you already know and love about the original Smakers; great food, great people, great interior design and adds a new elemant; loads of light and space. The Smakers family is a consistent one which means that whether your on this side of town or more towards the centre, you're never too far away from an amazing burger now!

The portion was so generous, that it could have easily been a lunch on it's own. But the dish of the day was THE highlight of the experience. It was a modern twist on Stamppot with a home-made rookworst and rich gravy and a truly delicious dish. If you ever want to try this Dutch classic, De Klub is the place to go (if they still have it on the menu).

Despite having grown up eating Banh Mi every other week in a city with a decent Vietnamese population, my first Banh Mi at Kimmade made me feel like I had never had one before.

Also paired with a Vietnamese iced coffee.

I had some beef pho with spring rolls and a Vietnamese iced coffee to spark everything up. Soup was more sweeter than salty, I kind of liked this as it was different from what I normally have.

The food is nice, but before they moved the menu showed a lot more delicious dishes. It's still good (tempeh satay, dim sum, sushi!), but if not by car don't bother going. But WHEN you do, start with the sparkling (something) rose cocktail and finish the evening with the Dark Moon for dessert... (I gave up on ever having a waistline a long time ago, indulgence is underrated ;))

A few years ago, Le:en was across the train tracks, but the city needed the building, so they made…read morethem move. It probably was the best thing to happen to them - they inherited a beautiful former gemeente utrecht car garage which provides a great backdrop for a trendy restaurant. It's a few blocks off the beaten path, but they use this to their advantage. If you're like me and you hear a restaurant is "asian" - the identity crisis red-flag goes off in your head and you begin to question - what does that even mean? They don't go in the clusterfuck of combining these different things together - but allow them to keep their identity. Each item on the menu is labeled Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese, etc to keep things focused. I appreciate that. They focus on asian-style small courses, with prices are around €5-8 per small plate. You'll need around 2-3 per person if you are sharing. The food has a modern twist and is pretty tasty. I recommend.
