Amsterdam Noord
Amid artful yet simple decor with a subtle designer feel, Cafe Modern is serious about its gastronomy yet without any stuffiness. There's a choice of a two- or three-course set lunch and a five-course set dinner, incorporating fresh seasonal ingredients on the 'surprise' menu.
It also has a few hotel rooms above the restaurant.
