About Middle Eastern cuisine
Middle Eastern cuisine spans the eastern Mediterranean and the Levant, prized for its mezes, grilled meats, legumes and warm spices. Olive oil, fresh herbs, flatbread and dishes built around chickpeas and grains are central to the table.
The Netherlands' restaurant scene reflects its history as a global trading nation and centre of immigration. Dutch cuisine itself — stamppot, bitterballen, haring and stroopwafel — shares menu space with an exceptional range of international kitchens, particularly Indonesian, Surinamese and Chinese, brought by centuries of trade. The country's cities are known for unpretentious eating: gezellig (cosy) brown cafes, canal-side terrace dining, vibrant street-food markets and a lively brunch culture.
