Carte Blanche Restaurant

WE DECIDED TO TRY CARTE BLANCHE FOR OUR LAST DINNER BEFORE RETURNING HOME.WHAT A GREAT TIME WE HAD.EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT.DENNIS PREPARED A FOUR COURSE DINNER FOR US WHILE GLEN SELECTED THE WINE PAIRING FOR EACH COURSE.IT WAS OUTSTANDING.

My wife and I went to Carte Blanche on Sunday, October 3, and we were completely blown away with the amazing food and service. This is a new restaurant (and a new concept), and it really works. The chef. award-winning Dennis van Daatselaar, and maitre d'/sommelier/bartender Glen Bonset are the only persons running the show, and you are able to watch the cooking and interact with both of them as though you are eating a fantastic meal in a private home. Both guys are funny and charming. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough--we had the five-course, and all elements were divine. One of the most interesting aspects is that when reserving, you can make them aware of what you like and don't like (e.g., seafood only, vegetarian only, meat, no this vegetable or that fish, etc.), and the menu will be designed around your wishes. Just amazing on all levels. We will absolutely be back!

My dinner at Carte Blanche was a brilliant experience. I enjoyed the nice setting (you sit in a confortable chair at a low bar, and you see the chef prepare a delicious meal, just in front of you) and the kind service. I choose the 5 course chef surprise, and was surprised indeed! This was new, exclusive and luxuruous!!! Especially the desert of chocolate carnache, mango and a chocolate martini spoiled me! Of course the wines served were delicious and outstanding as well. If you like fine dining, Carte Blanche is an experience you should not miss!
