Het Gebaar

Het Gebaar

"Roger van Damme’s reputation for stellar desserts needs no introduction and this is the place to sample his creations from a truly wicked dame blanche (vanilla ice cream and hot chocolate) to a mille-feuille vanilla slice to die for! But the pastry chef is also a wizard savoury chef, as a trip to his modern “gingerbread house” near Stadsschouwburg will convince you. Following a swish revamp, Het Gebaar sports a luxurious, yet casual vibe. Van Damme’s attention to detail is visible at every stage of your meal and nothing leaves the kitchen that hasn’t been puzzled over and preened to perfection. His distinctive, supremely elegant recipes celebrate familiar flavours, albeit with a creative twist. His talent for traditional dishes such as Beef Wellington is second to none thanks to his consummate pastry skills. The establishment, which only serves lunch and dessert, closes at 6pm, but, beware, the tables are often snapped up fast, so book ahead!" - Michelin Inspector
