Okay where do we start..  Make sure to check out the local cheese shops even if I am not into dairy products the way I used to be ..  I can assure you the cheese and dairy products taste 200% better than in the UK..  At least 🙂 S0me of the best local dishes you can order in Holland include their Indonesian Satay sauce dishes, Their huge panakooken (Pancakes) especially with ham and cheese ..  Not forgetting Dutch pofferjes with fruit syrup icing sugar and butter. Definitely worth a try when you are there.

If you are staying for any length of time hiring a bike is a great way to get about and is cool as there are lots of bicycle paths, and everywhere is flat so this also makes cycling very easy.

Some places you should visit include Scheviningen which is a seaside town with a nice boardwalk restaurants , Including awesome Panakooken restaurants, the best fish you have ever tasted, patates mit mayonaise , chips with the best mayonaise you ever tasted, And lovely Sate Sauces…  You will get them all here we used to visit it every Sunday.

The Euromast many years ago when we lived in Holland the Euromast was supposed to be the tallest building in Europe at the time..  At the top of it there is a large circular coffee shop with amazing views around it ..  There are also some amazing flower displays at koekenhoff another place worth a visit especially in the spring or summer.
