Luciano: artisanal ice cream
In the vibrant city of The Hague, surrounded by historical charm and international allure, you'll find two gems of ice cream parlors: Luciano Den Haag on Frederik Hendriklaan, affectionately known as 'De Fred', and Luciano De Trees in the cozy Theresiastraat, also known as 'De Trees'.
Van Kleef: Dutch distilling
In the heart of the old Hague center, shrouded in the mists of bygone times, once thrived the distillery of genevers, bitter extracts, and liqueurs known as Van Kleef. Founded by Lamberthus Theodorus Van Kleef, this first-class steam distillery was located on Lange Beestenmarkt. From 1842 until 1986, it filled the streets with the aromas of its spirited creations, until, as the last distillery in The Hague, it closed its doors. The reason was the threat of fire hazard in the old city center due to the production of alcoholic beverages.
