Since my go-to Chinese place, Woeng Kee, closed almost two years ago, I was left without a good place to get my fried rice and dumpling. I'm not a fan of the other Chinese restaurants in Chinatown. Full Moon City...

I'm more of a regular dining person than fancy dining. And with fancy dining, I mean course meals. I do like it, it's just something I do during special occasions. This time it wasn't a special occasion but a gift...

It's the summer of Detroit style pizza at Kaafi. If you are not familiar with Detroit style pizza, it is a pan pizza with a chewy crust, crispy baked cheese on the sides and poured over tomato sauce after baking....

Latest coffee bar addition and what a one! It has been years since I spent over an hour in a coffee place, reading a book, eating something and just chilling. For me the vibe of the place, the barista, it...

Amsterdam has some of my favourite places. So much so that when in Amsterdam, even if I have to be on the NDSM wharf, I will go all the way to Stack Deli in De Clerqstraat before taking the train...

Netherlands Bagels is the place to be to get your New York style bagel fix. They make fresh bagels every day. There are also a varying of specials during the months and pastries. I usually drop by to buy bagels...

This little Lebanese manouche place is one of my regular go-to places. My favourites are the baked falafel with veggies, cheese&zatar and the hummus wrap. Their fresh lemon juice is addictive and if you still have room, try their Halawa...

Being born and raised in Aruba and having Venezuelan family, I am no stranger to empanadas. Every country in South America has their own version. In Venezuela they use corn flour and fry the empanadas, they are little hot pockets...

This time I took a foodie trip to Rotterdam. Even tho I work in Rotterdam and I am there every week. I rarely eat out there except for the takeout lunch sandwiches at Jordy's Bakery and Hopper Coffee. For my...

This year, 2024, Brood van Bro opened in Wagenstraat making me pretty happy. It was a nice surprise walking by and seeing this new place. I have been a sourdough bread convert since 2012 thanks to a bakery close to...

Perron X Coffee is another coffee place on my go-to list. They serve their own specialty roast and best of all they have a decaf roast. They are open 7 days a week, from early morning till early evening and...

Single Estate Coffee opened its doors in 2019 in Zeeheldenkwartier and they are still going strong. They are my go-to coffee place when I'm in the neighbourhood. Croissant Cheese Cake You get a nice card with all the info about...

Burgers are back! Thanks to Frenchie's Burgers we can enjoy quality gourmet burgers again. I missed the years when hamburgers were all the rage. But now thanks to Frenchmen Alexandre Martiano and Edouard Gaudin from Villa Coucou, we can enjoy...

Sababa can be found in Prinsestraat near the Palace Gardens. They describe their food as "street food from the Middle East". would categorize them as healthy street food. I wouldn't go so far tho to equate it to Middle East...

Kaafi has been around for a couple of years. But with a couple of steady go-to places, I don't go there often. The menu is mostly egg dishes, leaving only 3 non-egg choices. Non the less what they do offer...

FLFL can be found in Spuistraat across Ladage. Since they opened I have been there a couple of times, enough to know they are consistently good. They have the most minimalist menu you can get. It's all about falafel, which...

Uncomplicated fastfood hamburger and hotdogs. It’s pretty simple. Hamburger, cheeseburger, bacon burger, hotdog or grilled cheese sandwich. All one price/size each with your choice of toppings. Little fries or big fries, without salt, with salt or with cajun spice. One...
