Step inside The Mistress, a boutique restaurant near Vrijdagmarkt where Persia and South-east Asia merge. This is the go-to spot for anyone looking for a journey of culinary discovery in funky pink neon.

You are welcomed by a carefully curated wine and sake list that is perfectly matched with the exotic dishes. Chef Sami, world traveller with Iranian roots, conjures up unique creations with Vietnamese influences. With a nearly zero-food-waste policy and décor that feels like poetry, The Mistress offers more than just a meal - it's a complete experience.

The interior of The Mistress is an ode to the film "In the Mood for Love" by Wong Kar-Wai, with a nostalgic 1960's and Hong Kong vibe in pink, funky neon. Whether you sit at a classic table or at one of the cosy counters, every corner of the restaurant exudes intimacy and style.

The restaurant works in two shifts: you can enjoy an aperitif menu and a set menu of five, six or seven courses, including a vegetarian option.
