Restaurant Rijsel has been around for almost 10 years and in that time has grown into an institution within the Amsterdam hospitality industry. A place that was filled from the first evening with chefs, wine lovers, couples going out for the first time, regular guests, neighborhood residents, colleagues, and everyone in between. Chances are you also have a memory of an evening with poussin and wine in the Amsterdam Marcusstraat. And so it was high time for a cookbook in which the well-known and beloved Rijsel classics are shared, but also the philosophy behind 'nouveau ruig' and 10 years of stories and anecdotes from famous regulars.
