Restaurant Atelier will give you a mouth-watering dining experience. The appetizers are a hit right away, leaving an indelible impression. Lobster and croûte with chorizo ​​mayonnaise, and a combination of eel with miso, chives and horseradish are just a few examples.

Both Lekker and Gault Millau have rewarded their attention to detail and seasons, as well as their passion and dedication. Wine lovers will also be pampered here, by sommelier Ellen Kinkartz. In addition to French-oriented wines, the wine list offers a wide variety from the Netherlands and Belgium.
