Feed Amsterdam

Here’s to another spot that got lost on my way-too-long list, until Simon, the lovely owner, messaged me. Feed Amsterdam’s ads reached me a while ago, and was already planning on trying out their brunch menu. Let’s be honest, Australian and NZ spots do it best around here. However, I ended up paying them a visit to try their new...

Cafe Cook

Is there anything better than Sunday brunch? Good food, drinks, friends, laughs…then I wonder why I have the Mondays blues every week. Last week we’ve decided to explore a part of Amsterdam West that we don’t usually go to, around Erasmuspark. There, we found Cafe Cook (’cause it’s on James Cookstraat, get it?). Not sure how long they’ve been there,...

Hannah’s

Recently, our date nights became date brunches, in between bar hops, on lazy Saturdays. It’s a nice temporary change, that gives me the chance to visit some lunch spots that have been on my list – like Hannah’s. You’ll find this cozy spot in West. The food is inspired by Mediterranean flavors, so expect anything from Italian, to Spanish, Marrocan...

Mem’s Amsterdam

Or Mems? It’s pretty confusing. Anyway – new lockdown, new opportunities to review lunch and brunch spots, since early dinners are still a bit too Dutch for me. A couple of weekends ago I was in search of a brunch spot that wasn’t sold out for the next 4 weeks (looking at you, Staring at Jacob) where I could grab...

Louie Louie

There were times when I’ve wondered…is it worth going all the way to East to try out Louie Louie? Then I’ve checked their website, where the menu was split between “day day”, “evening evening”, “drinks drinks” – and I’ve decided that’s pretty funny. I’ll go. Fast forward to last Saturday, I’ve finally managed to pay them a visit over brunch,...

Factory Girl

Rain and storms can’t break my bones, and I’m still gonna end up on a terrace for my brunch fix. This time, it was at Factory Girl in De Pijp. I don’t exactly remember who told me about this spot (about 2 years ago), but I remember the intro was something like “You have to check it out, it’s something...

Bakers & Roasters

Looking for a new hot spot in Amsterdam, I found…no, that’s not true at all. Bakers & Roasters is a legend, if anything. They have a good reputation in Amsterdam’s brunch world – which isn’t the easiest industry to be in! If you don’t believe me, pass by their place in De Pijp on a weekend morning and see the...

Best restaurants in Amsterdam 2019

Hard to believe 2019 is almost over! Dozens of meals and reviews later, I had a look back to what I consider to be the top 5 restaurants in Amsterdam (so far). Here’s where I returned more than once, where I order my Sunday night lazy dinners from or where I send my friends when they’re asking for a good...

Dignita

Does everyone already know that I live for brunch? Okay, cool. Dignita has obviously been on my “to eat” list for a while. Their food is very Instagramable, so it popped on my feed multiple times. With two locations and a Bloody Mary on their landing page, it was bound to happen. Last Sunday we went to their East location,...

Little Collins

What a weekend we’ve had! It was Hayden’s first birthday spent in Amsterdam, so the celebratory brunch spot was chosen by…still me, obviously. After almost an year in the West, we finally made an appearance at the famous Little Collins! Brunch spots may be my favorite to review, and enjoy. I just get so excited about brunch, what a wonderful...
