Top choice in Amsterdam
Greetje is Amsterdam's most creative Dutch restaurant, using the best seasonal produce to resurrect and re-create traditional recipes, such as slow-cooked veal with Dutch-brandy-marinated apricots and suckling pork in apple syrup with Dutch mustard sauce. The tasting menu (€55) starts with the Big Beginning, a selection of six starters served high-tea style.
If you can't decide on dessert, there's the Dutch cheese selection with apple syrup, soaked prunes and dark rye bread.
