Utrecht

Kars Alfrink: My favourite place to start the day, preferably with a slow "clever" coffee on the lazy couch with the barista's dog snoring away next to me.

Kars Alfrink: Their Italian sandwiches - small ciabatta with your choice of fresh ingredients - are hard to beat. I usually go for one with a double spread of mortadella.

Kars Alfrink: Small dishes, mostly finger food. It's all a bit fusiony and probably not authentically Levantine, but still tasty. A laid-back atmosphere thanks to it being slightly outside of the center.

Kars Alfrink: Affordable and delicious vegetarian food. Weekly rotating fixed 3 course dinner menu. Good drinks menu with plenty of local beers. Cheerful staff and relaxed ambience complete a great experience.
