About the restaurant
The typical Dutch cosiness means in countries around the Mediterranean 'together'. Taking time for each other around a table full of small dishes and enjoy a glass of wine. Each ordered an average of 3 or 4 dishes per person and then everything on the table is shared socialising. Our chef roams the market looking for seasonal products and likes to combine local produce with Mediterranean spices. In Jottum is preferably cooked with organic, fair trade, and fresh produce.

About the restaurant
Kenners hebben onze malse steaks zelfs bekroond tot ‘the 50 best steaks in Europe.’ TROTS! Waar het ‘m in zit? Ons vlees is biologisch en wordt op de Josper houtskoolgrill bereid. Juist dol op vegetarisch, vegan of heb je een andere dieetwens? Ook dan zijn we het go to adres.

Ons restaurant, gelegen in hartje centrum, is een plek waar je je op je gemak voelt. Een informele ambiance, gastvrije bediening, eerlijke prijzen.

Kom langs & geniet!
