The house

Grandmother Albertina opened the door in 1968 with six tables, a charcoal grill out in the lane and one rule: we cook what the sea gave us that day.

Today her grandchildren run the counter. The tables are the same, so is the grill, and the menu is still written by hand every morning.

We don't take bookings for the counter. Come early, order a glass and wait with the neighbours.
