On Texel: during the day to Texelse Branding, in the evenings to café restaurant Branding & Citrus
As a Barts Boekje team, we encourage new initiatives. We cannot skip a visit to Texel without having coffee (+ treats) at the Texelse Branding in Den Burg. It just so happens that they also offer dinner options here from Thursday to Saturday under the name Café Restaurant Branding & Citrus. With local and organic products, original preparations but above all uncomplicated good food with matching wines, beers and non-alcoholic drinks.
That bodes very well.
Your mouth waters when you look at the menu. The idea? A long list of tasty snacks, followed by small dishes to share (or to eat all by yourself, ha!).
At Branding & Citrus there is no long story about a concept or the idea of things. They serve dishes that they like. We approve. The menu changes regularly, so if you are on the island for a week you can join us several times (do it!).
There is delicious ceviche with blood orange and jalapeño, but the vegetarian snacks are also delicious (leek! eggplant!) and masterfully prepared. For the kids (and for yourself) there are pizzas from the enormous stone oven. The combinations are original; how about sauerkraut and 'nduja?
Be sure to save room for dessert because both sweet and savory are recommended. There is a cheese board with various cheeses from the islands. Especially Texel cheeses, but also a selection of Vlieland, are included.
We will be back.
