On Saturday morning the Zuidermarkt is great for bread, cheese and cappuccino’s, and just about every organic food you could wish for. Take right from our, house, then the second right, walk straight ahead and cross the Lairessestreet and there you'll find the market.

We love restaurant Merkelbach for their great organic food in a beautiful garden. Especially in summertime, when you dine al fresco. Can't beat it...

Vuurtoreneiland is an experience. If you are able to get a reservation (book a few months ahead or check their Facebook for last minute offers). You get an a boat from Lloyd Hotel, together with all the other guests and almost all of the staff, you sail for about 45 minutes and then.... you arrive on a deserted little island, overlooking the Markermeer. It's a pure and peaceful setting, very romantic. The restaurant is in a very cool glass house, and the food is organic. Same owner as restaurant As.
