Nijmegen


One of several restaurants with terraces across the street from Valkofpark, this sophisticated bistro cooks up fresh, seasonal fare such as candied sea bass with asparagus and wild-rice risotto, bream in crayfish cream, and various tender, charcoal-grilled Black Angus beef cuts to share. In front of the fireplace, the kitchen bar and alfresco patio are all wonderful spots for an oyster aperitif.
