Cabron

Oh, the never-ending run to find decent Mexican food in Amsterdam…it’s a bit of a struggle. Lately, I’ve heard more and more names popping out with good reviews, but most of the time, they cost an arm and a leg for…tacos? By now, newer restaurants have topped my (also never-ending) list of restaurants to review, so I forgot about older...

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...

Miri Mary

What’s up, Amsterdammers? Has anyone else noticed that if you’re trying to find a new food spot in the city, they’re all French? Don’t get me wrong, I love me some French cuisine, but how many bistros can we take? Anyway – I was looking for something completely different for our recent date night, so we ended up at Miri...

Yuzu dining bar

If you’re in the “business” of food reviews in Amsterdam, you couldn’t miss reels and millions of posts about one of the newest spots: Yuzu dining bar. So naturally, I had to make my way over there before they get to 50 Google reviews. The first thing that sets this place apart is the setting. There are a couple of...

Jenifer Street

2023 – new year, new food! Hopefully some good stuff. Been away for a couple of months, mostly because our foodie budget was spent on too much beer watching the world cup games. Also visited London (more food) and Romania for Christmas (you guessed it, more food).No regrets though, because I’m back with a gem that’s new in the neighbourhood....

Plato Loco

June has been a beautiful month for Hayden and I. After years of living life on pause, we’ve traveled pretty much throughout the whole month. Between a trip for a beautiful wedding in the South of France, Provence, and our first trip to New York…we’ve squeezed in a get together with our friends at Plato Loco. Located in Amsterdam West,...

De Japanner

Aaaand I finally made it to the famous De Japanner. I don’t know, man…I have a long list. De Japanner was an attractive option for my group of friends – some meat lovers, some no-sushi-for-me people, some vegans. Everyone had options here. Extra points, the place is also actually famous for pretty nice cocktails…and it sure is cocktail season! The...

Branie

Branie – I finally remember the name without looking through my notes and messages. Because after you try it, you’ll probably remember it too. Last weekend, Hayden and I helped our friends move from beautiful De Pijp to the beautiful West. Closer to us, and close to plenty of amazing restaurants that they’ll add to my list. Win win. For...

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,...
