Brasserie De Poort

Frommer's Review

In a former beer hall across from the Royal Palace, this restaurant has been serving up the stolid virtues of its steaks and typically Dutch fare -- though now backed by a cast of international dishes -- for more than 100 years. Beamed and tiled with Delft blue from Koninklijke Porcelyne Fles, the Dutch-tavern dining room has been fully restored along with its parent hotel, called Die Port van Cleve. De Poort maintains a tradition that's become legendary among regular patrons: Each steak is numbered, and if the number on yours is a round thousand, you win a bottle of wine. They've already served more than 6 million steaks! The restaurant is equally known for its Dutch pea soup.
