Crisis – what crisis? Sure, there still is something like a financial crisis which hit also the fine dining world quite significantly…

So, for sake of some division of labour in the blogging community I opted for De Jonkman. We booked on short notice on a Friday night which was surprising as all starred restaurants in the area were fully booked.
