FG Food Labs

This "taste laboratory" led by one of the Netherlands' best chefs has an exceptional experience in store for diners. It all starts with the vibrant, hip location: a converted train tunnel! The curing hams you see hanging add to the Spanish-style ambiance. There is nothing stiff about this place — it's all about feasting on surprising flavours in a casual atmosphere. François Geurds is on a quest to find new ideas, try things out and make discoveries. For example, he will play with sweet and savoury flavours until he finds the right balance. The flavours and textures that turn up on your plate at FG Food Labs are intriguing. Chef Geurds's dishes have solid French foundations and he draws on aspects of Spanish and Japanese culinary traditions, pushing the boundaries in an effort to get the best out of his ingredients. For example, his gently steamed halibut forms a beautiful alliance here with hearty ossenworst (Dutch ox sausage), an intensely flavoursome raw garlic froth and a deep shellfish bisque. Get ready for an adventure! Please note that these creative options are only served at dinner. For lunch, FG Food Labs offers street food dishes and a special that changes weekly. Reservations are not required at lunchtime.
