Yuzu Dining bar

Delicious (and affordable) fusion fare, decent service and a well-designed decor may explain why this new spot has roared onto the scene. Choose from various takes on the house speciality chicken yakitori, including organ meats and crispy skin (from €3.50). But don’t miss the signature sticky ‘rice chips’ with smoked miso butter (€7) or the refreshing iceberg lettuce with seaweed and spicy dressing (€8). There’s a good selection of sake, wines and cocktails, too. The Kaffir Sour (Japanese Toki whisky, lemon, Kaffir lime and Angostura bitters, €12.50) is particularly good.

De Plantage

This fountain-lined café-restaurant terrace on Artisplein at the ARTIS zoo overlooks an aviary with Dutch meadow birds and flamingos. If the weather turns fowl (pun intended), there’s a lovely wooden conservatory inside the handsome 19thcentury monument, too.
