Restaurant Mr & Mrs

Top choice in Haarlem


Unexpectedly gastronomic cooking at this tiny restaurant is artfully conceived and presented. Small hot and cold plates designed for sharing, such as whiskey-poached oysters with candied sea vegetables, sea bass and olive mille-feuille, and walnut-, pumpkin- and Gorgonzola-stuffed guinea fowl are followed by desserts like raspberry and pineapple tarte tatin. Definitely book ahead.
