Karel 5
French
Crystal chandeliers, old paintings, and sculptures set the mood at this Michelin-starred fine dining restaurant tucked into a medieval complex just outside Utrecht's center. The chef leans hard on hyper-local sourcing, vegetables get serious attention, and a meat-and-fish-free tasting menu is always on. When the sun shows up, the garden terrace makes the whole thing feel almost unfairly pleasant.

Sole
“But when he serves sole, for example, it is poached to perfection and comes into its own thanks to a beurre blanc sauce with vin jaune and fresh trimmings.”
