Brasserie Park

Brasserie Park is a restaurant and party hall housed in a refurbished farm building on the edge of Park de Houtkamp near Leiden, and... a residential block. From the outside it looks quite vintage (as in old-fashioned), but once inside the hip and happening come flying toward you in a nice tight young blonde package. The furnishing's nice and post modern, which doesn't really fit the surroundings, but who's counting? There are large tables for big groups, a lounge area if you just feel like tapas and vino, and proper tables for small parties. The menu's great, and contains various exclusive dishes, which go above and beyond the standard grand cafe deals you would usually expect. A fine wine card accompanies the proceedings. Add to this timely service, and a very surprisingly decent price line, and I wholeheartedly recommend Brasserie Park in Leiderdorp for another visit.
