In the heart of the vibrant KNSM island, amidst a mix of modern architecture and historical charm, sits KANIS, an authentic warm eatery. It is a beautiful waterfront location where you can moor your boat at the jetty. The spacious south-facing terrace is the ideal place to enjoy a drink and snack in the sun. At KANIS, we are not only a daytime spot where you can have lunch and cosy drinks, but also an eatery where you can enjoy our frequently changing International dinner menu daily.

From January 2024, we have taken over this establishment and will continue with the concept. At the end of February, we underwent extensive renovations to improve the bar and kitchen for more enjoyable and faster operation and, not insignificantly, to make KANIS look even more beautiful.

We are looking for an independently working chef for KANIS who has an affinity for creating and developing amazing dishes, aspires to grow within the organisation, and above all, is a tremendous team player.
