Europe Netherlands The Hague Dining Toko Frederik

Overview

Toko Frederik

The guide was updated: 2024-03-08

After the Dutch settled in Indonesia and mixed their cultural traits with those of the locals, many interesting culinary combinations were born. Along with the large wave of Dutch-Indonesian settlers that arrived in the Netherlands in the 1950s came the contrast of sharp, sweet and salty, indicative of cross-continental cuisine. Toko Frederik is a shining example of this amalgam of flavours and executes the distinct flavour profile to a tee in a friendly, family-run environment.

Foodhall Scheveningen

Foodhall Scheveningen

Offering food from just about every corner of the world, this vast complex of internal cuisine is sure to fill the requirements of anyone passing through with an appetite. The food court is designed to promote a mix of cultures that can all fit under one roof, giving customers the impression that they are in a street market. The only challenge is choosing between all the delicious different options there. Will it be Surinamese, Mexican or Vietnamese? The list goes on.

Tapisco

Tapisco

What was once a renowned bookshop is now a distinctive Mediterranean restaurant serving some of the most time-honoured tapas dishes from Spain and Portugal with an added local twist. The quality of the food is fantastic in relation to the prices they are charging, and the long wine list offers a plethora of pairings to choose from. Mixing and matching is the aim of the game in this restaurant. An especially good combination that was quite unexpected is the jamon iberico with the Bloody Mary oysters and a side of blue cheese all the way from Asturias.

Baladi

Baladi

Baladi’s Manouches are simple yet effective finger food that you can pick up on the go from the city centre. The flatbread topped with hummus, shawarma and other traditional Lebanese ingredients is baked fresh every day, so it makes a great breakfast, light lunch or late afternoon snack depending on when the hunger pangs strike.

Restaurant Ñ

Restaurant Ñ

Another Spanish restaurant featured in the Michelin Guide, Ñ offers a sharp and sophisticated menu complete with fresh, quality ingredients and a touch of Mediterranean magic. Prices here are very reasonable and there are set menus available which are designed to bring together a mix of interesting flavours which can be paired with a comprehensive wine list.

Villa Coucou

Villa Coucou

La Cuisine d’Alexandre is fantastically French, in essence, with an added zest of Mediterranean creativity, demonstrating a delicate blend of style and substance. Chef Alex worked in several top restaurants in his time before becoming head chef at Villa Coucou, during which time he learned how to combine different textures to manifest stimulating flavours and present food as art. Villa Coucou is also home to a cocktail bar, a wine cellar and a boule court, so there is plenty to do on either side of this upscale gastronomic experience.

Dekxels

Dekxels

This Asian Fusion restaurant specialising in seafood brings together the best parts of Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine in bite-size packages, affording customers the luxury of choosing between a huge variety of small plates, each with a distinctive taste and appearance. Larger groups (minimum 11 covers) can choose between two set menus that offer an assortment of the restaurant’s most popular dishes. The fresh food, ambience and service have made this restaurant a particularly attractive option amongst travellers passing through and a very repeatable experience for the locals who have recommended it to them.

Conscious Kitchen

Conscious Kitchen

For those who are more inclined towards conservation and conscientiousness, this non-profit company champions tasty meat-free meals that make the most of food waste from local markets that would otherwise go unused. The owners are experts in sustainable cooking techniques, so take a pew at their long communal table which is opened up to the public every Tuesday (notwithstanding holidays) where you can learn more about turning compost into culinary delights.
