For the best street food go to Foodhallen, a compact indoor food court located in a former tram depot in Amsterdam West, where entrepreneurs sell snacks and drinks that can be enjoyed on the spot. Great vibe, quality food and great craft beers and G&Ts. We love it and it is very popular among foodies, both local and visiting. A 10 min bike or taxi ride away.
The concept was inspired by ‘indoor food markets’ such as the Torvehallerne in Copenhagen, Mercado de San Miguel in Madrid and the Borough Market in London. The Foodhallen is part of the Hallen Amsterdam, a centre for media, culture, fashion, craftsmanship and food. So if you're up for a salsa lesson or want to see the latest indie movie, this is also the place to be.

Our local Fishmonger, with daily fresh fish from the nearby fishing village of Volendam.
Being surrounded by water, the Dutch eat a lot of fish, often as a snack at the fishmonger or the herring market stalls you see at many street corners, try it for yourself.
The staple snack is raw herring with onions. The Dutch will eat it on the spot. An acquired taste, but very addictive once you tried it and a healthy choice.
Another more safe choice and popular snack is 'Kibbeling', battered and fried chucks of cod, often served with a garlic or tartar sauce.
Another typical Dutch fish is 'gerookte paling' or smoked eel from the Ijselmeer, the lake in the middle of Holland. As a snack it is served on a white bread roll.
And finally you have to try the 'Hollandse garnalen' the Dutch North Sea shrimps, small but the most tasty shrimps you will have tasted. You can order a shrimp salad as a snack.

The small Amsterdam Museum, located in an historic orphanage has a really good and concise introduction to the history of Amsterdam with a very well thought through interactive tour supplemented by historic paintings and objects. Before you visit the other large museums such as the Rijksmuseum, which can be a bit overwhelming, we recommend you visit this museum first to form a picture of Amsterdam throughout its history.
