Oogst

Oogst sits in a townhouse on the Denneweg, in the Buurtschap Centrum 2005 neighbourhood of The Hague, with a hint of Paris in the room and the cooking. The kitchen is the bistro counterpart of sister restaurant Calla's and shares its garden.

The set menus are determined by what comes out of Laantje Voorham, a biodynamic vegetable plot in a dune pan in Wassenaar where the team harvests produce, herbs, and cresses through the season. The chef and the grower set the annual planting plan together.

Mains keep one foot in the French bistro tradition, with lamb, sea bream, and langoustines appearing alongside the garden's vegetables, but herbs and edible greens carry much of the flavour. The atmosphere is warm in tone, unhurried, and suited to a long evening on a quiet street.
