Things To Do In Amsterdam We would rather be snacking on frites (French Fries, chips, pomme frites) in Amsterdam! Jill thought I was nuts whenever I would mention that I had a craving for frites, but only the ones served-up from a couple of places I know in Amsterdam. Well, she now understands and pretty much agrees with that statement - although, further sampling of frites around the world are required to determine a definite winner. Yes, we know that Belgium frites are famous and are right at the top with other Belgium specialities such as: Belgium beer; Belgium chocolates; Brussels waffles (known in North American as Belgium waffles). But, we still stand by our statement that we love the frites in Amsterdam. Served in paper cones (usually small, medium or large) with a tiny wooden fork and accompanied with our favorite choice of sauce (typically choose from eight to forty sauce options), frites are a fine snacking option anytime of the day or night. Jill enjoys dipping her frites in mayonnaise (the thick kind that is only served in Europe) and Viv is in heaven with a tangy-sweet curry sauce. This is the perfect treat when strolling the streets of Amsterdam! A couple of our "fry-shack" recommendations are: Vleminckx Sausmeesters - Address: Voetboogstraat 31, just off the Spui. Snackland BV - Address: Damrak 58, not far from Centraal Station. Prices range from Euro 1.75 to 3.25 for frites and sauce is extra. Happy Travels!
