The 23 Best Restaurants in Amsterdam, the Netherlands | Eater
"The kapsalon (“hair salon”) is emblematic of the diversity of the modern Netherlands: A Cape Verdean hairdresser dreamed up the dish while visiting his local Turkish shawarma place. It consists of a pile of fries covered in döner meat, a slice of Dutch cheese, some miscellaneous vegetables, and doses of garlic sauce and sambal. Though the original hails from Rotterdam, you’ll find the nicest one in Amsterdam at Sinbad. Veal döner is the classic, but there’s also a highly regarded chicken version, as well as lamb. Watch a broad cross section of Amsterdam society churning in and out while you wait for your meal, and don’t forget to load yours up from the self-service sauces. Know before you go: Get a soda, even if you don’t think you want one, to counter all that salt." - Katharine Khamhaengwong
