Moeders for dinner

I asked the tour guide where a good place for a stamppot would be and he instantly said I had to go to Moeders (mother's in Dutch) as they have the best traditional Dutch food and where the locals take each other out to.

The place was packed so I had to go wait for an hour outside with a drink. I got a Jopen as it was close to Joep and is a harleem made beer. It was drinkable which says a lot for my level of beer tolerance.

The walls are covered with pictures of peoples mother's that they have brought in since 1990 when it opened. There wasn't a blank space to be seen.

I got in and ordered a Stamppot with sauerkraut for dinner. The translation of this dish is hotchpotch where things were just thrown together.

It was a simple meal but felt good and homely to be eating.

Originally I sat down next to two guys who were from NZ one of them living in Antwerp.
Once they left another couple arrived from Melbourne so I talked to them for a bit and interestingly the guys brother had recently joined SES in runaway bay.
It's crazy how small a world sometimes.En savoir plus
