A list of 7 of the newest hospitality concepts of the Netherlands
Of course, this list is never complete, but we are going to dedicate articles to the newest hospitality concepts we spot through Instagram from now on, at least once a month. Of course, you can always keep sending press releases with images about openings, but we feel that many young entrepreneurs have more confidence in the reach of social media. Hence our choice to highlight these young entrepreneurs this way.
Miznon | Wild Mediterranean Street Food
Miznon is the wild brainchild of celebrated Israeli chef Eyal Shani in Vienna’s First District. The first Miznon opened in Tel Aviv in 2011, followed by Paris, Singapore, Vienna, Melbourne, and NYC. Shani aims to capture every sense of Tel Aviv’s street food scene in a loud, rustic, casual space, infusing each pita and dish with his trademark originality. Miznon’s menu changes daily to reflect the freshest produce in season but always uses a special pita crafted for Miznon by Israel’s world-famous Angel Bakeries. As mentioned on their website the next location should be Amsterdam! Other locations are opening soon too: Barcelona, Prague and Berlin.

Charcuteria Amsterdam is right next to Barlotta, however the experience is completely different. Anyone that enjoys great hams, olives, tiny fishes in oil and nuts will have a great time at Charcuteria Amsterdam. Would you like to go out but don’t have time to make it a long dinner? The pasta bar offers a quick but delicious meal! We are looking forward to the opening of Charcuteria Amsterdam on September 21st.
