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.

Hello lovely Dutch visitors! You may be wondering (and a bit annoyed as to) why I have referred to the country as Holland and not The Netherlands? This is because the tourism board for the country specifically instructed me to refer to the country only as Holland in this video and to not call it The Netherlands at all - I have no idea why 🤷‍♀️ I do understand there are several provinces in The Netherlands and only two of them have the word 'Holland' in. And you'll be pleased to know I refer to the country as The Netherlands in all other walks of life. The tourism website for the whole country is also www.holland.com/! Apologies if I've offended any Dutch people by referring to the country as Holland. May I suggest you take the matter up with the tourism board, perhaps enough emails can get them to change their branding! 🧡

@abrahamcusters2987 4 года назад

The Cutlery Chronicles I am not offended at all. FYI: just last week the government and the tourist board decided to emphasize on The Netherlands and to abandon Holland.

@StevanOutdoor 4 года назад

Seems to me like you are making this video for people that want to visit. I'm Dutch but always refer to my country as Holland(a) when talking to foreigners. When I say The Netherlands they often have no clue what I'm talking about. And when our national teams are playing the supporters all sing 'Hup Holland Hup'. Kudo's for visiting two different cities instead of Amsterdam.

@LeylaKazim 4 года назад

@@abrahamcusters2987 Thanks very much Danny. I was getting quite a lot of comments from angry Dutch people as to why I had called the country Holland. So I thought I better put out a response to address it. I'm glad my using the word Holland hasn't offended everyone! 😅 And good that the tourism board are focussing on 'The Netherlands' now

@gerbenvanessen 4 года назад

brand recognition? holland was the origin of the ships. so the sailors were hollanders so many countries know us as holland kind of like how the tribe that used to live in Germany near now france was the allemang while the one near the Polish border was niemce which is why the French call it Allemange and the Polish call it Niemcy or something. but yeah we do not like it :)

“Now I’m in The Hague” Is actually on the beach in scheveningen 😂

@Widdekuu91 4 года назад

Noticed that as well, but tbh Scheveningen is difficult to explain xD One of the reasons why Weesp (way-sp) is promoted as "small Amsterdam.' Super-annoying.

@Widdekuu91 4 года назад

Also, Voorlinden is in Wassenaar xD

@LeylaKazim 4 года назад

Haha good point! I think because The Netherlands is so small, two sites are considered different places by The Dutch even though they are so close together. And this is unusual to foreigners. For example, the beach is called Scheveningen but it's just a 15 minute drive from the city centre of Den Haag. If that was the case in the UK, that beach would definitely be 'in' the city of Den Haag. And I think people from other bigger countries see it like that too. Apologies if it gets annoying 🤣 It's certainly good to know for future, thank you!

Correction: against what's said widely that Netherlands colonized Indonesia for 300 or 350 years, it's not correct. 300 years back from 1945 (the year of independence of Indonesia), Indonesia wasn't around yet. Even the concept of Indonesia as a nation hadn't been formed yet. The correct statement is that Netherland expedition lead by Cornelis de Houtman arrived in Batavia in 1956. It was the first time Netherland came in East Indie region that hundreds years later became Indonesia. And in the first time they arrived, they didn't suddenly conquered and colonized East Indie. They came for trading. What most people don't know is that it's not all regions of Indonesia had been colonialized by Netherlands. Some regions were never been colonialized by Netherland.

I'm not sure if you can say my parents' and grandparents' generations started cooking it to impress the Dutch, I was always under the impression it was more because it was the food they dearly missed in their new country. Either way I'm glad that the older generation worked hard to create Indonesian food culture in the Netherlands, and that it was therefore possible for us younger Dutch born generations to grow up with Indonesian food too.

By far the best channel of its kind I've encountered so far. Most people who go to the Netherlands don't seem to reallise there are places outside of Amsterdam. I love your enthousiasm and how you not only focus on the famous foods but the things that are part of the culture too. Like with the indonesian stuff. I do have to say, as someone who lives in the far south, the big city culture is very different to the one you'd find in Noord-Brabant or Limburg. Places worth checking out if you're ever back here.

Many irritable people here moawning about "Holland" versus "the Netherlands". Get a life. Holland is the brand name of the Netherlands. Why? Because it is 10x more known and 10x easier to remember and pronounce. We Dutch support our football team with Hup Holland Hup! And that is not all people coming from the provinces South and North Holland.

@LeylaKazim 4 года назад

Hi Sam! Actually the majority of cheese available to buy anywhere is not vegetarian as it uses animal rennet to separate the curds from the whey (rennet is from the lining of a baby cow's stomach). Vegetarian cheese uses rennet from a plant source instead. If you want vegetarian cheese make sure you look at the label when you buy some and it will have a label if it is vegetarian :)

Hi Robert, thanks for your comment! The food stops were part of the two excellent food tours I did with local residents of both Utrecht and The Hague, who personally recommended these places.

Probably Dutch people are irritated by the name "Holland" most foreign people only know Amsterdam and that is in the province of Noord-Holland so it is more the recognition that other provinces do not get and therefore there is only attention for Amsterdam. Incidentally not because of you haha! Anyway nice video! Maybe you can visit the province of Overijssel? Cities such as Zwolle and Deventer.

Those are the fanciest sandwiches with kroket I've ever seen in my life! Also, fresh stroopwafels from a weekly market (without any added stuff) are simply the best! Thanks for doing a segment on the Netherlands and I'm glad you focused on cities that are not Amsterdam. Pretty much everywhere I've traveled people say Holland. I think it flows better and it's well-known because of history, but I do explain to people that Holland is merely a part of the country and it's not the province I grew up in so I refer to the whole of the country as the Netherlands.
