The ‘Foodhallen’ opened in ‘De Hallen Amsterdam’ – a newly renovated tram depot – in October 2014. The concept was inspired by indoor food markets like the ‘Torvehallerne’ in Copenhagen, ‘Mercado de San Miguel’ in Madrid and the ‘Borough Market’ in London. There you can find the very best “culinary Amsterdam” has to offer. With over 20 different stalls, varying from Michelin star concepts to international ‘streetfoods’. Nice mixture of locals en tourists.

My number 1 restaurant in Amsterdam. It's in the 'upcoming' part of Amsterdam, Amsterdam North. Not too touristic, very nice food and great events and parties. The view over 'the IJ' is amazing. Special tip: 'Films with a View' on the Pllek beach!

My favorite museum! The extensive permanent display and regularly changing exhibitions feature objects that all have a story to tell about humankind. Stories about universal human themes like mourning, celebration, ornamentation, prayer, conflict. The Tropenmuseum Junior is the Tropenmuseum’s children’s museum, but very interesting voor adults as well;).
