De Pijp


Timber tables at this light-filled salad bar are made from a fallen Vondelpark tree, as are planks on which dishes such as homemade hummus, house-baked breads and vegetable chips are served. Salads come in bamboo bowls. Ingredients – red quinoa, hazelnuts, aubergine, goat's cheese, beetroot, lentils, spinach, micro herbs, edible flowers, fruits and berries – are organic; virtually everything is vegetarian.
