when i moved here, people told me the greatest issue with the country was not the weather, it was the food. and i remember saying "there's no way it's that bad".

after being here for 2y, holy shit it's true. one dutch coworker said "we just eat for fuel, not for taste".

thankfully it's quite easy to buy amazing ingredients and just do really tasty home meals.

i would also say dutch bar/finger food is delicious. it's impossible not to have bitterballen while having a beer.
