Madame Janette: International Dining in Noord Since 1999
Madame Janette serves international cooking with Caribbean influences in Noord, and has done so since April 1999. Executive chef Karsten Gesing leads the kitchen. The Table Desk books your table, so dinner can be planned before you land.

The restaurant opened in April 1999, which gives it more than a quarter century in Noord. The menu moves between international plates and Caribbean flavors. Karsten Gesing is listed as executive chef.
Meat is a clear strength. There is outdoor dining for warm nights, and live music adds to the evening. The setting also works well for a family dinner.
To reserve, send The Table Desk your date, preferred time, an optional backup time and party size. You pay a flat $20 service fee online and settle the meal itself at the restaurant. The table is final once we confirm it in writing.
