Dertien

Rotterdam


An Instagrammer's paradise, this industrial-chic eatery serves dishes that are utterly gorgeous to look at. Utilising local produce and often featuring unusual ingredients, hipster chefs in the open kitchen create dishes that aren't quite as good to eat as they are to look at, but are still tasty. The wine list features obscure labels and varietals aplenty.
