Bitterballen & dumplings
What will it be this evening: Vietnamese street food or Mexican cuisine? If you can’t choose, go to the Foodhallen; the first covered market hall in the Netherlands. Here you can eat all kinds of food from a wide range of stands.
When you wander through Amsterdam’s Foodhallen, it feels as though you are in London, which isn’t surprising because this indoor food market was inspired by markets that cities like London and Copenhagen have had for years. It’s the perfect place to get to know the specialities produced by local businesses and it is the place to be for Amsterdammers who don’t fancy cooking. To get your mouth watering, here are the names of a few stands: The Ballenbar, Fento, Meneer Temaki and DimsumThing.
Nice to know
Foodhallen is located in a former tram depot and is part of ‘De Hallen’, a huge complex comprising a number of TV studios, a cinema, a library and a hotel.
