The post 3 Best Dutch Foods To Try in Amsterdam, The Netherlands appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>Bitterballen
These classic meatballs are found in bars across the city. Nowadays, there should be plenty of vegetarian, vegan, and even gluten-free options available, but if you want to, you can always try the originals which are made from a thick beef stew that then gets breaded and fried. Try with a dab of mustard or mayonnaise, and don’t forget your toast of classic Dutch beer to accompany your bitterballen!
Fish and Chips
The Dutch and the British can argue over who really invented the classic dish of fish and chips forever—all you have to do is decide which is better! Head to the Albert Cuyp Market around lunchtime, to be in with a chance of ordering some seriously fresh fish and chips. You can even watch them batter and fry the fish in front of you at some market stalls! Don’t forget to try some of the condiments on offer with the fish, a classic is “frittesauce” which is just a bit sweeter than mayonnaise.
Waffles
Other countries and regions across Europe may argue that the waffle originated there, but one thing is for sure—the waffles in Amsterdam are out of this world. Commonly ordered as a seriously indulgent breakfast dish, you can expect all sorts of toppings to be on offer in a traditional waffle house—opt for the classic bacon and maple syrup, or try something more unusual, like baba ganoush and fried egg. Whatever you choose, you’re sure to enjoy these Dutch delicacies!

]]>Avoid the Tourist Traps
Some places cater specifically for visitors with grand décor and a menu that comes in various languages, but a local would never be caught dead in there. These are the ones to stay far away from. Their food is often overpriced and not as authentic as a smaller, humbler joint that is committed to making good food as opposed to attracting tourists.
Local Knows Best
Trust us, the people on the street will be your best bet when it comes to finding somewhere fabulous to eat. Ask passers-by, taxi drivers, shopkeepers, and hotel staff which are their favorite spots. You’ll know it’s good if the place is bustling with locals.
Blog About It
Social media is filled with food influencers and bloggers who spend their time seeking out the best places to dine. Take a digital journey through Instagram and indulge in the real photographs of the dishes that you need to sink your teeth into.

]]>Caffe Leccese
Named after Lecce where it originated and continues to be most available, Caffe Leccese is a coffee drink perfect for the summer heat. It’s an espresso poured over ice, with a special almond milk syrup layered beneath. Mixed together, it’s perfectly cool and sweet. If you visit Avio Bar, which belongs to the family who invented the drink, you’ll find an even better version of it with a layer of creamy shaken espresso.
Pasticciotti
When you order your Caffe Leccese, you should absolutely pair it with a Pasticciotto. This custard-filled treat also originates in Lecce, and is often eaten for breakfast alongside coffee. Its original purpose was to use up leftover cake batter, so the pastry is cakey and crumbly with a perfect caramelized crustiness on the outside.

Negroamaro and Primitivo are two wine grapes native to the Puglia region. They are most commonly and successfully grown there due to the climate and have been associated with the area for nearly a thousand years. They are both delicious dark red wines that are worth trying while you’re closest to their origins.

Barbecue is almost a religion in South Carolina. For the whole hog, Scott’s Bar-B-Que in Hemingway and Rodney Scott’s BBQ in Charleston are the places to go. If you are a fan of ribs, be sure to check out Henry’s Smokehouse in Greenville.

Buttery scratch-made biscuits are one of South Carolina’s icons. Lizard Thickets offers an incredible variety, from grilled biscuits served with jelly, to biscuits stuffed with egg and meat, or smothered with gravy.

Oysters
There are literally dozens of oyster hotspots along the coast, but Hudson’s Seafood House on the Docks on Hilton Head Island is undoubtedly one of the best. The oysters are harvested within sight of the restaurant, and they cultivate their own single selects as well.

]]>Eating, one might argue, is education, and food—as the focus of celebrations and casual get-togethers—has a way of bringing us together. When it comes to traveling, experiencing different dishes can shed light on other people’s way of life, their cultural values, and their identities.
No one understands this notion better than traveling duo Mark and Elizabeth Rudd. The couple behind travel and food blog Compass & Fork, their brand marries food and travel together seamlessly. Their website includes dedicated sections for recipes and travel tips, with selected blog posts such as “How to Cook Greek Lamb Roast at Home” and a “Guide to the Fabulous Melbourne Markets”.
“We tend to be independent, active travelers,” the couple shared in an interview with Travel Awaits. “Our travel style is affordable luxury. You won’t find hostels or budget travel, but you’ll find great value, unique accommodation, and experiences.”

Janine Thomas (@gastrotravelogues)Like most travel bloggers, Thomas’ knack for adventure is tied to her early childhood: “I started traveling when I was 9 years old,” she recalled in an interview with Culture with Travel. “My aunt lived in London, so I would fly, on my own, from Cape Town to London for my holidays. It was such a long flight that the aircraft had to stop to refuel on a small island called Ilha do Sal off the Africa coast. That was 45 years ago and was an incredible adventure.”
Thomas’ upbringing might also explain her love of food. Growing up in Cape Town, South Africa, she explains that spending time at the beach was a way of life. She remembers her father would go diving and emerge laden with crayfish—which would later be served with a dollop of mayonnaise (a simple, delicious, and heavenly meal she recalls to this day).
According to Thomas, another dish that represents Cape Town for her is farmers sausage AKA boerewors: “It is spiced with coriander and is eaten throughout SA, even as a street food snack,” she explains. “It is almost always cooked over a fire, and the smell alone is enough to get my mouth-watering.”
Of course, plenty has changed since Thomas was a young traveler. “Travel was very different then to what it is now,” she notes. “I was always excited by traveling and I still am today. I love the fact that you are transported to a completely different world with such ease. Travel can teach us so much, if we are just open to the experience of learning from others.”
Her love of travel and food, combined with her skilled writing and nostalgic recollections, makes Thomas’ platform an ideal attraction for travel enthusiasts worldwide.
