At the heart of the new offering is the return of an icon: the Black Plate. First created at Vong in 1995, the Black Plate was far more than a starter. It was an introduction to Jean-Georges\u2019 culinary world, a dramatic sampler designed to arrive at the table laden with his signature creations, inviting diners to taste, share and discover. Now reimagined for The Connaught, the Black Plate brings together a selection of his greatest hits. Expect playful, intensely flavoured bites such as Crispy Salmon Sushi, Chicken Samosa and Raw Tuna in Rice Paper, alongside other enticing small plates.

The Hague will kick things off in the first quarter, at an iconic location in the city.<\/p>\n<p>With The Hague, Utrecht and Eindhoven, the entrepreneurs behind Bouillon d\u2019 are deliberately continuing to build an umbrella brand in which each city gets its own identity. The choice of these three cities is no coincidence. Each has a strong character of its own, and that is exactly where Bouillon d\u2019 can forge a real connection with the city. The precise addresses are being kept secret for now, although\u2026 Bouillon d\u2019Amsterdam is located on the site of the former De Hooiberg brewery, where Gerard Heineken began his brewing story. There is a link to the Heineken family in The Hague too: the new site was once a familiar address for Freddy Heineken.

In the Netherlands, that has almost become synonymous with the protein transition. Yet one category remains conspicuously absent from the discussion: fish, crustaceans and shellfish. At the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/horecava\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Horecava<\/a> 2027, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DbV0DAcCB7H\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SeaNext<\/a> will bring together scientists, chefs, behavioural experts and the seafood sector around a thought-provoking question: what place does seafood deserve on the menu of the future? The symposium \u201cSeafood on tomorrow\u2019s menu: from protein transition to hospitality industry\u201d takes place on 12 January 2027 from 1.00 pm to 4.15 pm at the Horcava in the RAI Amsterdam.
