great news: you can order this streetfood at home
Every time when I bike over the canals of Amsterdam, I fall in love with this this beautiful city all over again. The old mansions, the small canals, the many little bridges. Yes, I love Amsterdam! One thing is for sure: I’m never going to leave this city :-)
Because of my work I’m actually always on the go, also when I’m in Amsterdam. I go from hotspot to hotspot. But honestly, I also really can enjoy an evening on the couch. During a lazy Sunday me and my lover love to order some food. And one big advantage of my work is that I exactly know where to order my food in Amsterdam. Thank god for foodora, haha! Because they make it possible and that makes my life a whole lot easier ;-)
I always see the most delicious dishes of local chefs passing by on their Facebook-page and Twitter-account. And at the sight of their foodoracles I’m spontaneously salivating. Have you already seen them? These are short clips that tell the story behind the food that you order. In eleven different cities. And now also in the kitchen in one of my favourite restaurants in Amsterdam: &samhoud places.

Here you see chef Moshik Roth who get’s his inspiration from all around the world. His mission? He wants to make delicious food for everyone in the world. This means that you can go there for a wonderful dinner. But &samhoud places is also the place to be for streetfood and thanks to Foodora thus take-out food. Like! Whatever dish you choose, its filled with taste and originality. Watch the clip below and you’ll sure crave for his dishes! It’s the perfect way to order some food for at home, or maybe even for a romantic picnic along the canals…
And did you know that you can now also order the food from the Michelin star restaurant &samhoud? Delivered and served at home!
