Any traveller would surely want to land their feet on Amsterdam. After all, it is one of the most popular destinations in Europe. For the adult tourists, I believe that they are interested to check the country’s red light district. I understand that urge to check De Wallen (famous red light district in Amsterdam). But before you fulfil your sexual desires, you might as well fill your empty stomachs with great food. Now, where do you find the best foods in Amsterdam? Check out my quick guide!

Sandwich in Broodje Bert, Amsterdam, The Netherlands by Stephan Mosel

Broodje Bert

Are you a sandwich eater? If yes, then Broodje Bert is a place to visit. They offer wide choices. The BLT is a must try. But personally, it would be a challenge to choose your ‘sandwich for the day’. Most of the choices are tempting. For the chicken lovers, I would recommend the grilled chicken breast sandwich. They use fresh ingredients which makes it more appetizing.

Gartine

You might want to enjoy breakfast in this tiny restaurant. It’s very homey. The owners are so lovely, it’s as if you are treated like a family. But let me remind you to have an early reservation or to go to Gartine before it opens. It’s almost always jam – packed with people who would love to have superb breakfast while enjoying the lovely ambiance.

Greenwoods, English Tea Room & Restaurant

Looking for a place to fill your stomach but on a tight budget? Try Greenwoods, English Tea Room & Restaurant. It’s really cozy and I would like to recommend this if you want to relax. Why don’t you sit outside and enjoy the view?

Vlaming Eten & Drinken

Do you have friends who are vegan? If yes, bring them here. They don’t need to torture themselves by seeing other people enjoying their meals. They could do the same as there are vegetarian offers from the menu. Some might say that food is quite costly. Nevertheless, it’s worth it. The portions, the wines, the desserts are close to perfection.

Winkel 43

Craving for apple pies that will bring you instantly to heaven? Go to Winkel 43 right away. Since this food place is also popular, you might have to wait before you can get a seat. But don’t worry because the wait is just worth it. Still not convinced that their apple pie is nothing compared to your mom’s? I dare you!

If you’re going to Amsterdam, it’s not enough that you see the popular structures and the ‘intriguing’ culture. It is a must that you try the best foods too. The experience would be really amSTERmazing!
