Dutch Culture! 18 Unmissable Typical Dutch Foods

Welcome to this food-focussed Dutch culture guide covering some of the most typical Dutch snacks and dishes you can find in Holland - don't watch on an empty stomach! 😅

I spent a few "gezellig" days eating my way around the cities of Den Haag and Utrecht, absorbing the Dutch culture and scoffing everything in sight. From stroopwafel to herring, cakes to coffee, natural wines to Indonesian food, croquettes to Lebanese street food, monastery-brewed beers to organic breakfasts. And a lot more in between. Super lekker! 🤤

In this video I share 18 typical Dutch culture foods to try in these two beautiful and often overlooked cities. This list showcases the diversity that can be found in Den Haag and Utrecht and just what great foodie destinations they are.

Below are all the places I visited along with their websites, and you can skip straight to each section in the video too if you want to.
