Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for The Randstad right now.
Although this area of Holland is home to some of the country's most worldly restaurants, keep in mind that most bars also offer house specials whose prices are usually cheap enough to keep students and young people sated (keep an eye out for the kleine kaart, or lighter meal menu, usually offered in the bar area and available throughout the day). Perennially popular dishes such as satay and pepper steak never come off the menu.
In a restored 18th-century building, Delft's classiest restaurant actually began as a humble pancake house, but owner and top chef Joris Peters now serves an ever-changing, but always innovative, array of exquisitely refined French-inspired dishes. Set a little outside town, but easily reached by cab, in fine weather it is worth trying to snag a table on the beautiful terrace, overlooking the Schie River.
As you walk down the narrow alleyway to this gem, it's easy to be misled by its unassuming exterior, but the interior is cozy, and the rear opens out into a breezy conservatory, with views of a beautiful walled garden dominated by a 200-year-old beech tree. Fashionable locals come here for generous portions of grilled meats, excellent salads, and an unusually large vegetarian range.
