Al Mercato – Maastricht

Nick Riethoven — Thu, 20 Aug 2020 16:30:45 +0000

A couple of weeks ago, we visited Maastricht for a small holiday in our own country.
On our first day, we were actually the whole day craving for pizza. Therefore we decided to visit restaurant Al Mercato.

The restaurant is located on the ‘Markt’ which is a beautiful square in Maastricht. We decided to take a seat at their terrace and we first ordered a Peroni beer and a glass of white wine. The waiters were all very hospitable and enthusiastic and there was a cozy atmosphere. We direclty felt at home at this restaurant.
Thereafter we ordered the Bruschetta al Pomodoro as a starter and the pizza Quattro Formaggi as a main. The bruschetta tasted amazing and it was beautifully prepared as well. The pizza Quattro Formaggi also tasted wonderful. Especially the dough was very good and also the blue veined cheese was well presented in this pizza.

We had a wonderful evening at this restaurant and we were happily surprised by the amazing service that we received. Therefore, we definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who is in- or going to Maastricht. You will receive wonderful Italian food for a good price.

Annie’s Leiden Summer Lunch

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

Restaurant Annie’s Leiden is one of our favourite restaurants in Leiden and since we can not get enough of this restaurant, we decided to write a second review about it. We had a beautiful spot on the terrace were we could see all the boats passing by on the canals which was absolutely wonderful.

Our afternoon with a cold beer and a glass of white wine and after a quick look at the menu, we already knew what we wanted. We decided to go for the smoked salmon sandwich and the brioche with serrano ham. The whole grain bread of the smoked salmon sandwich tasted superb and the salmon and creamcheese tasted mouthwatering as well. The brioche with serrano ham tasted also delightful. We never had eaten a brioche before but we were actually happily surprised by its taste. It was also quite a richly filled sandwhich and therefore it was sometimes quite difficult to eat in a neat manner.

Eventhough the terrace was packed, our food and drinks were served on time and with a smile. We again had a very pleasant experience at this restaurant and therefore we recommend it to anyone who is living in, or visiting Leiden.

– Have you ever visited Annie’s before?

Wheat Weet Mag Het Zeggen – Jopen- Beer review

Nick Riethoven — Tue, 21 Jul 2020 16:30:00 +0000

Imagine an English garden full of lush borders of colourful flowers. The soothing fragrant of daisies and sage. Actually the perfect time for an English Wheat Wine right?

Wheat Weet Mag Het Zeggen from the dutch brewery Jopen is an English Wheat Wine brewed with wheat, sage and daisies. It is quite a powerful beer with a rich flavour due to the use of wheat malt. Also, the beer is slightly bitter with a floral aroma and a minty aftertaste.

The beer has an alcoholpercentage of 11% and it is therefore quite a strong beer. This limited edition beer spent two months in Monbazillac, sweet white wine, barrels. This has added notes of grape to the taste pallet.

We enjoyed this beer but unfortunately it almost had no foam. This was a bit of a pity to us. Also the taste of white wine was, to our opinion, to much represented in the beer. Therefore we rate this beer a 3,5/5.
