Like many European cities, some of the most important Amsterdam tourist places are centred around food. The food markets in Amsterdam delight all of your senses, with rich flavours and scents from exotic local and international dishes. The Albert Cuypmarkt is a must-see, and is favoured by locals and tourists alike. Here, you can sample fresh local dishes cooked my neighbourhood chefs – make sure you sample the freshly cooked stroopwafels as well as raw Dutch herring.
You can also pick up a host of knick-knacks and fresh produce. Foodhallen is another great food market. It is covered and indoors, with a more upscale atmosphere than a typical outdoors food market. Along with multiple bars and modern music, there are a host of food stalls to choose from. Visit on a Friday or Saturday evening to see Foodhallen at its buzzing, vibrant best.
