Fodor's Expert Review Carstens Brasserie

Dutch
Fodor's Choice
With a dizzying array of recently opened restaurants offering so-called New Dutch Cuisine, it's looking like Dutch food has finally been given the makeover it long deserved. This Centraal Station–adjacent establishment gives brasserie classics a Lowlands twist, using seasonal ingredients fresh from a local organic farm.
Bring the kids; there are kids' menus and regular family lunches with a fun educational twist on Sundays.
