Description

This self-guided food tour takes you on a gastronomical journey to taste the “must-eat” dishes at 7 hotspots in this beloved neighbourhood. Not every stop is open daily, but at least 6 will always be open. De Jordaan – home to the Anne Frank House and Westerchurch – is a gem of a district in Amsterdam’s bustling city centre. Known for its quirky architecture, charming canals and buzzy vibes, this formerly impoverished neighbourhood has become an artistic and exciting district. But its signature warm and humorous Jordanese attitude and delicious flavours remain, and are yours to discover. Whet your appetite and enjoy a traditional Jordanese sandwich at a local lunchroom that’s served the neighbourhood and iconic local musicians for generations. Take your pick from several choices of traditional Jordanese toppings. Every Wednesday and Saturday, you could also enjoy freshly-made “poffertjes” (baby pancakes) with icing sugar and butter. Next up, taste authentic Dutch cheeses from a famous local cheese shop. From young, to old, to flavoured, experience the best quality Dutch cheeses selected and aged by a true connoisseur. Sweeten up your taste buds at one of Amsterdam’s best Italian ice-cream parlours, then sink your teeth into a Dutch sausage sampling at a legendary local butcher. Take a walk and enter a historic 200-year-old brown cafe to enjoy one of Amsterdam’s best apple pies that had a former US president smitten. Then savour a Dutch fish combo of kibbeling (fried cod) and herring, and dive into the history of this iconic fish. Finally, visit a unique Amsterdam concept store to enjoy a slider and drink combo, prepared by a renowned local chef. Learn more about this vibrant neighbourhood and get to know the local food heroes. But that’s not all!
