Karel 5
Utrecht, Netherlands
Sélection · Farm to table · ~100 € / pers. · Utrecht, Pays-Bas
This restaurant has a laid-back and refreshingly natural feel; its name reflects chef Niels van Zijl's deep emotional connection to his hometown (Heimat) of Utrecht. That sense of local pride also shines through on the menu, where vegetables are the undisputed stars and local suppliers play an important supporting role. Vegetarians are catered for with a fully vegetarian set/tasting menu, although you can opt for a main course with fish or meat. The cooking is playful, approachable and carefully crafted, but never loses sight of the ingredients themselves. Creamy ricotta is paired with blistered heritage carrots, a reduced carrot jus bound with butter, mustard seeds and kumquat to create a dish that is full of character. The alcohol-free pairings are another of the restaurant's strengths: inventive, vibrant and perfectly matched to the creative energy of this socially engaged establishment.
