Oficina
Oficina is a daily canteen, food design studio and shop in Amsterdam-West. They’re open for breakfast and lunch, alongside tea, wine, and other curated and homemade drinks. The restaurant is guided by cooks and designers, which you can really see in their dishes and interior. Everything is creative and looks like a piece of art. Their intimate canteen serves a small and seasonal menu that changes as often as their mood and as new ingredients come in. Naiara brings personal dishes that are both classic and modern to the table. Taking inspiration from around the world and learning closely from teachers, Naiara developed her own style of cooking. Oficina specialises in vegetarian cuisine but occasionally incorporates fish. Their dishes are crafted with honesty and purity, emphasising the natural flavours of the ingredients without artificial additives. They take pride in using high-quality ingredients sourced from top producers and importers in the Netherlands. You might even taste herbs or vegetables grown in their own garden.
