A Meat Eater’s Guide to Amsterdam: Steakhouses, Burger Bars, Amsterdam, Netherlands
Before we get into my recommendations for the best steakhouses and burger bars in Amsterdam, a note about buying meat in the Netherlands. I grew up in the UK, where it was normal to roast a big cut of meat on a Sunday – a rib of beef, a leg of lamb or a whole chicken, for example. Mr Foodie grew up in the US, where it was equally normal to buy a whole packer or a Boston butt and throw it on the smoker for several hours. Moving to the Netherlands then, it’s immediately apparent that this isn’t much done here. The supermarkets sell individually portioned chunks of meat in plastic packaging. And while the butchers are a better bet, they still often don’t stock large cuts of meat – although they’ll order them in for you if you call in advance. As a result, I’ve ended up ordering a lot of meat online – generally from Butchery.nl or Beef & Steak. Meanwhile, for all things BBQ, visit Barbequeshop.nl or Barbecue & Gourmet. And now, on with the meat restaurants!
