Sidney Schutte is a citizen of the world. He trained in renowned kitchens such as De Librije and Amber, where he developed his own inventive style enriched with cosmopolitan finesse. Today, his restaurants in Kuala Lumpur, Mexico and elsewhere have won wide acclaim. Yet it is here, in the luxurious Waldorf Astoria hotel, that he showcases the full spectrum of his culinary talent. This typical canalside mansion charms with its understated class and graceful elegance, and the view over the inner garden is unique in Amsterdam. Impeccable service allows guests to fully unwind during this captivating fine dining experience. The finest Dutch produce and international influences meet in sophisticated, often complex dishes. The technically gifted chef embraces contrast – he is an innovator, not an imitator! This holds true for his vegetarian set menu as well as his fish and meat creations. He elevates a magnificent langoustine with chipotle, kaffir lime, cacao and briny vegetables just as deftly as he tops a succulent cut of skate with strawberry powder and presents it alongside oyster, artichoke and an intense tomato-jalapeño jus. The result: a dazzling harmony – a true voyage of flavour.
