A lot of restaurants in Amsterdam have started to use more and more locally grown ingredients and serve ecological/organic food. (Hooray!) Next to this there is a big use of second hand furniture.
The city offers a lot of vibrant, original and responsible places to eat, from snackbars til vegan restaurants. So please promise us to not fall for that 5-Euro-Pizza or the steakhouse.

This is where real Amsterdammers go for a drink. If you've heard of the after work tradition of a "borrel", then this is where to do it. The only 2 words of Dutch you will need are "bier" and "bitterballen" (untranslatable Dutch snack!) - "graag" (please) is optional!

Very historical location. Located in the centre of 'De Jordaan', not too far from the Anne Frank museum, right in front of the Noorderchurch. In the summer there's an amazing terras on the Noordersquare.
The locals that come visit this place, are the real real locals.

TonTon is an unconventional place to go because you have to go outside the canal ring. This is good since you get to know the real Amsterdam. In addition, you visit a different park, the Westerpark.

Yes, this place is also mentioned in Lonely Planet. But for a very good reason: The food is great and very affordable. Besides.. The place is called 'The Barking Fish'. Isn't that your reason?

The Bar Botanique is directly next to the Muiderpoort train station, a main commuter hub 1 stop from Centraal station. Locals are therefore tempeted each time they walk home on a Friday night to stop by, especially if they see a friendly face sitting on the terrace outside!

Forget your average burger bars and fastfood buns. This little brooklyn-style restaurant serves the best burgers in town. Two frivolous chefs fire up their grill to serve you the best burgers and grilled chicken with potatoes on the side. Accompany your meal with a special Brooklyn beer or try one of their Gin-inspired cocktails.

Skek looks like something between a typical brown bar and a restaurant. Nothing fancy, but coziness guaranteed. A normal dish costs around €15,- and that attracts the necessary students and tourists, but in this case, the right ones.

If you want to get in contact with locals in the ages 25 - 35 years old, this is a good place for you. You will notice that most visitors are well dressed (again, nothing fancy) and higher educated. So besides the food and ambiance, a good conversation can also be reason for a visit.

To top the food, you can relax and eat on de Braai's own mini-beach overlooking the Sloterkade. A perfect South facing spot for the upcoming summer months!
The burgers and fries are actually relatively inexpesive considering the pricetag that normally goes with a "lifestyle burger"!
