Food Scene

Great place nextdoor for the perfect brunch or coffee. You can also order breakfast/lunch/homemade cakes. Evelyne will treat you as kings! Huset's interior is of an old mansion, a real hidden gem in the city! Oh... And the brunch on saturday morning is a really fabulous!

Great place for groups. They have a lot of spaces they can "seperate" so you get a private feeling. Good food for a good price. It's a big restaurant but as it has many spaces you don't get the feeling of being in a big place. THey often still have last-minute spaces for groups but reservation is recomended.

A 5klm run along the water on soft bottom. But, there are cars driving at the side. Personally I prefer to take the 5km of the Watersportbaan and combine it with the Blaarmeersen (you will pass the entrance while running on the Watersportbaan). Good luck and enjoy!
