A fascinating eatery, whose Croatian name (Nebo translates as ‘sky’) pays tribute to La Luna, the 1-star Michelin restaurant of Dimitri de Koninck’s father. Youthful Dimitri, in his own swish establishment in the hip Nieuw Zuid district, demonstrates that he learned the ropes with the best. He enjoys pampering his guests with an entirely à la carte menu. The immense wine cabinets bear witness to his passion for oenology. Connoisseurs of first-class ingredients, such as eels from the Eastern Scheldt and wild seabass will be in culinary heaven. The chef faithfully upholds classical culinary traditions, which he pairs with a host of details and unconventional side dishes. For example, he may serve cauliflower in miso and à la crème to enhance consummately oven-roasted langoustine. His ultra-light, irresistible millefeuille is paired with fresh figs and a butterscotch ice cream to die for, demonstrating how surgical precision and generosity are embedded in his DNA. Everything is prepared on the spot and the diner is king at Nebo.
