Amsterdam and Food

Amsterdam was beautiful, no questions about it. However, it was lacking in the food department especially if you've vegan. I didn't go to any restaurants while I was there and was tempted to try their herring but couldn't find any. Also, there didn't seem to be any authentic eateries and frankly I don't even know what Dutch food is like. Fish and herring was the only thing I could think off. Bummers...

What I did like was their cheese shops. Being a cheese lover I was in heaven because they had a lot of taste samples. Goat cheese, Sheep cheese, soft cheese, hard cheese, cheese with red pepper, cheese with pesto, cheese with tomatoes, aged cheese, fresh cheese, Gouda cheese, very aged Gouda cheese ALL IN MY BELLY! There were literally two cheese stores right beside each other and both had the same cheese along with samples. I had cheese for lunch that day... a lot of it. 

Now the cool part is that Dutch people are awesome. Guess what they eat their cheese with? 

Wait for it... Mustard. Yes, mustard. Weired ha?

Since I ate so many samples, I felt bad and decided to buy something. I was sketched out about buying cheese because I didn't have any fridges and was going to spend 2 weeks in the hot regions of Europe. So I opted for some dill mustard :P
