HS Happenings: Food, Glorious Food

The Amsterdam restaurant scene always seems to me to be a bit schizophrenic; nothing very remarkable opens for the best part of a year, then there'll be a flurry of half a dozen exceptional looking places that pop up over a couple of months. Happily, we seem to be right in the midst of such a period now.

We are, pretty much without exception, what i would class as EATERS at HS. Food is a hot topic, and we can rarely make it past 10.30am without some kind of food-focused discussion kicking off. We even have a shared Excel document with all our latest, tastiest finds on it. So you know who to ask next time your best friend / mum / lover is in town.

In the meantime, here's a rundown of some of our favourite new openings. EET SMAKELIJK!!
