About Global Seasons
Hello and welcome!
My name is Nil. I am grateful you have reached out to our website at Global Seasons! If you love eating, cooking, exploring global cuisines, attending cooking workshops, and plan to offer some tasty bites or wholesome prepared meals for your loved ones and employees, you are in the right place. This is where the Global Seasons connection blossoms.
The Global Seasons menu is vegetarian because these foods are delicious, nutritious and offer great versatility. Cooking with plant foods is so much fun to me because they can be used to shape your recipes in so many different ways.
I strongly believe that consuming fresh local produce, and cooking with wholesome and unprocessed ingredients in season are healthy for us and healthy for the planet.

My food philosophy
My food philosophy is to eat what’s tasty when it’s at its tastiest and use ingredients that are local, available and seasonal.
I am neither vegetarian nor vegan. However, our menu at home is largely plant-based, while occasionally including fresh fish or poultry, and only rarely, small quantities of quality meat. Be assured however that all of our offerings at Global Seasons are 100% vegetarian.
I eat when hungry, my meals at home not following fixed hours, particular diets or specific food trends. I am fond of carrots, beets, aubergines, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, courgettes and all the brassica vegetables like cauliflower, kale and kohlrabi. I love mung beans, cranberry beans, chickpeas and lentils.
We grow vegetables and herbs in our garden and compost every scrap we produce in the kitchen in order to regenerate soil for our garden. I detest throwing food away and love cooking and re-building new dishes from leftovers.
Quality is even more important than quantity. I love exploring open markets and food stalls. I support local groceries and shop at Afrikaanderplein, Oogstmarkt, Markthal, the Delfshaven Market and the local online farmers’ market Rechtstreex.
I invite you to have a look at our gallery and check out our seasonal menu on the website.

Rechtstreex
We at Global Seasons are fans of shopping and eating locally. With our culinary walking tours we aim to further promote this idea in our area.
We buy our floor from our nearby windmill and our honey from the kinderboerderij in Oud-Charlois. As another element of our commitment, products from Rechtstreex form a major component of our catered meals.
I have worked as a Charlois wijkchef since September 2021. The 'Charlois wijkpunt' is located in de Nieuwe Nachtegaal where I also serve meals for the Buurthap on Mondays and Thursdays.
When you order from Rechtstreex at de Nieuwe Nachtegaal, you can also get your freshly made soup by Global Seasons. Soup pick-up every Wednesday from 15.00 till 19.00 hrs.
