D’amici – Vleuten – Restaurant Review

Nick Riethoven — Sun, 15 Nov 2020 16:00:32 +0000

When we were on our way home from our citytrip to Den Bosch, we decided to make a stop in Vleuten at D’Amici.
D’Amici is an Italian restaurant and pizzeria and they cook according to Italian traditions and hospitality.

When we arrived at the restaurant, we were greated and seated by the owner of the restaurant. We got a nice spot with a good overview of the kitchen and we directly received some bread with dip on our table.
We decided to order the pizza Quattro Formaggi and the Diavolo.
The pizza Quattro Formaggi tasted very good but the small pieces of spicy salami on the Diavolo were a bit disappointing. Because the pieces where so small, it rather tasted like a pizza Margaritha.
Furthermore, the service was unfortunately very bad. Even tough it wasn’t very busy, we had to wait for a very long time to order something or to get our bill.
This was a bit frustrating to us since we tried to get anyones attention all the time but without succes.

Unfortunately, we wouldn’t recommend this restaurant since the pizzas weren’t that fantastic and because we were very disappointed by the service that we received.

Fratelli – Den Haag

Nick Riethoven — Thu, 29 Oct 2020 16:51:35 +0000

During our citytrip in The Hague (or Den Haag in Dutch), we visited Italian restaurant Fratelli on our last evening. Restaurant Fratelli offers a rich variety of regional dishes from all over Italy. Therefore, the restaurant not only serves pizzas and pasta but also meat and fish dishes.

When we arrived at the restaurant, we were directly greeted by a waitress who took us to our seat in a cozy corner of the restaurant. We direclty ordered a glass of white wine and we decided to go for the Carpaccio Di Manzo as a starter.
The carpaccio tasted absolutely wonderful and it was one of the better carpaccios we have eaten.The slices were very thin and with the Parmesan cheese it tasted amazing.
Furthermore, we ordered the Tagliolini Al Tartufo Nero which was a dish made of fresh Tagliolini pasta with truffel. This dish was very special since it was prepared at our table in a big Parmesan cheese.
The pasta was incredibly tasty and it had a wonderful flavour. Moreover, you get a decent portion of pasta for the price you pay for it as well.

The waiters in the restaurant were very kind and did their job well but the service was not anything really special. We had a great last evening in The Hague in this restaurant and therefore this restaurant is certainly recommended. Especially the Tagliolini Al Tartufo Nero is an absolute must try!

Karalis Leiden – Restaurant review

Nick Riethoven — Thu, 16 Jul 2020 16:30:00 +0000

Restaurant Karalis is a local family restaurant in the city centre of Leiden. This restaurants serves authentic Italian dishes with a strong accent to the island of Sardenia. The restaurants only uses products imported from Italy and they try to make everything theirselves as much as possible.

The diner

We started our evening in this restaurant with homemade baguette and herb butter and a good glass of wine. As our first course we ordered the ‘Funghetti misti trifolati’ and the ‘Calamari fritti’. These were mixed mushrooms in a creamy garlic sauce and fried squid served with garlic mayonnaise. The mushrooms tasted amazing and the fried squid was really crispy and tasteful as well.

Thereafter we ordered the pizza ‘Quattro formaggi’ (four cheeses) and the ‘Ravioli al pomodoro’. The pizza was absolutely the best four cheeses pizza that we ever tasted before! The dough was crispy, but soft and the cheeses on the pizza were amazingly creamy. The ravioli also had a good taste but it could not compete with the pizza. The taste of the tomato sauce was in our opinion a bit overwhelming but the ravioli itself tasted very good!
Finally, we chose to go for the ‘Dama bianca’ and the ”Panna cotta alla fragola’. These were vanilla ice cream with hot chocolate sauce and whipped cream and homemade pannacotta with strawberries. Both of the dishes tasted superb and sweet.

We thought it was very special that most of the Karalis staff is Italian. This gives the restaurant a really different vibe and it feels like you’re in Italy the moment you enter this restaurant. We had a very pleasant evening in this restaurant and we absolutely loved the food as well! If you go to this restaurant, you should definitely try their pizzas. They are, in our opinion, the best!

Terra Promessa – Bruges

Nick Riethoven — Tue, 07 Apr 2020 18:00:00 +0000

The whole weekend we were craving pizza but we never managed to order it somewhere. Luckily, we came across Terra Promessa during our weekend in Bruges (Brugge). Terra Promessa is a small Italian restaurant close to the city centre of Bruges.

We ordered the “Pane all’aglio” which is garlic bread with cheese, a “Pizza piccante” (spicy pizza with chorizo, bell pepper and spicy chili sauce) and a “Pizza quatro formaggi” (four cheeses).
The ‘Pane all’aglio was a tasty starter and it was enough for the two of us.
When the pizzas arrived at our table both of us were salivating. The pizza looked so appetising and they were also quite large. Not only did it look good.. it tasted incredible as well! The waitresses at the restaurant were also very kind. The food was served very quickly to our table and we had a wonderful time here.

If you are ever in Bruges, don’t hesitate to call the restaurant to make a reservation. It is definitely worth it!
