Hello Globetrotters and Foodlovers! My name is Sonja I’m from Germany. My passion is travelling and FOOD. That’s why I’m running a Travel- and Lifestyle blog called Lifestylecircus. (http://www.lifestylecircus.de/)
I had the pleasure to discover some of the hottest culinary foodspots in Amsterdam for you. If you’re still about to plan a weekend trip to Amsterdam, you need to know where to eat extraordinary!
My stay at Hilton Amsterdam was simply an awesome experience right from the first second. I had heartily welcomed and pretty much impressed by the bright and well designed lobby. From the very first second I entered my freshly renovated and comfortable room the first thing I’ve noticed was the breathtaking VIEW over Amsterdam and one of those pretty little canals. I couldn’t help to spend some time on the window sill, enjoying the view, and let sink in, especially by night! I promise you..You are going to LOVE IT! My sleep was so good I recovered so easily in this particular large cozy bed.

But let’s talk about the other significant things…The lovely and generous staff members, who welcomed me with open arms. The large breakfast, which had everything you need even if you have special needs. Last but not least worth mentioning are the fantastic service features. I’ve explored everything by bike, which I’ve rented in the Hotel directly. But fortunately most of my suggested hints were located nearby, so you were able to reach them within walking distance. Whenever you need assistance or service the concierge team will always assist you with a smile and sense of generosity.
Let’s start with some cool genuine lunch spots.
4850, Camperstraat 48-50, 1091 AH Amsterdam
You know what? If you love avocado toast, this is your place to be. They are famous for their crispy warm fresh-sliced bread with a delicious avocado mousse topping, wild salmon and poached eggs. Hopefully you can imagine the exceptionel tastiness by reading only!
Frens Haringshandel, Koningsplein 468, 1017 AW Amsterdam
Fresh pickled herring? Visit one of the oldest and for me the most authentic little wooden herring place located in the city center. Enjoy ; )
Cafè George, Leidsegracht 84, 1016 CR Amsterdam
One of my all-time favourite cafès with a beautiful view over the incredible canals of Amsterdam. They have a delightful lunch menu. You should try it! I would absolutely recommend it for a perfect for a little coffee break.
Let’s head over to my favourite dinner spots!

Robertos, Apollolaan 138, Amsterdam, 1077 BG
What about a delicious, creamy and intensely truffled pasta? Hands up, if you are craving for very good truffle dishes. I can’t resist, when I read something includes truffles ♥ Grab your phone, call Robertos, make a reservation and enjoy the best truffle pasta ever, surrounded with excellent service. Ah and try the sea bass tartar as well. Soooo goood!
Maris Piper Brasserie, Frans Halsstraat 76HS, 1072 BV Amsterdam
Remarkable interior design, great service, delicious food, pretty nice winecard and the best almond-salt-butter I’ve ever had. Unmistakle taste experiences are guaranteed! I would recommend to make a reservation, because this spot is a must-visit location in Amsterdam.
I hope you guys are going to try out some of my hints and will love them like I did! You can read a full german version on my Blog (http://www.lifestylecircus.de/)
Enjoy your stay in this beautful city!
