Hemingway

Cuban

Named after Ernest Miller Hemingway, the Cuban explorer and writer. The many small dishes in tapas-form show the rich diversity of traditions and cultures that Hemingway saw on his journeys. 

They are our neighbours, but also a cosy restaurant with a Cuban atmosphere, cocktails and music.

Italian

A beloved restaurant among the locals. Classic Tuscan meals are served, from antipasta to meat- and fish dishes. They use fresh ingredients and Tuscan olive oil.

In the summer you can eat outside, surrounded by monumental walls, enjoying your Italian wine. Chianti, a real regional product, is known as one of the most popular Italian wines. 

Boccaccio
Moro

Moorish

Moro has a 'Moorish kitchen' (South Mediterranean) with an overwhelming affluence of intense flavours and aromas. Century-old influences from Spain, Nothern Africa and the Eastern-Mediterranean area. 

The restaurant does have an oriental touch and in the summer you can find a lovely (lounge) terrace outside. 

Tapas (Spanish)

Cervantes is a typical Spanish tapasrestaurant. Small bites, from albongidas to Serrano Ham and many fish- and meat dishes. 

Seven days a week it's nicely busy with a relaxing atmosphere. You can choose for 'unlimited tapas' or a la carte.
