BREDA
The brainchild of culinary trio Guillaume de Beer, Johanneke van Iwaarden and Freek van Noortwijk, Breda opened in 2015 on the picturesque Singel canal and was an immediate hit. In a light and airy yet intimate restaurant, you can expect a fixed menu starting at three courses at lunchtime for €32.50 (£28), up to “de hele mikmak” (the whole shebang) at dinnertime for €86.50 (£75). Dietary requirements are of course catered for, and wine pairings are available, too – many of which are organic and unfiltered wines. Dishes are eclectic in their flavours, but with frequent nods to their southern Dutch roots (Breda is named after a city in the southern province of Noord-Brabant by the same name). The service is also impeccable.
