Eetcafé Edita Amsterdam: a place that takes you to Southern Europe for an evening

Eetcafé Edita Amsterdam was meant to be a place where you're reminded of wonderful moments with friends, preferably during a summer vacation in a Mediterranean region. Take the South of France, for example, a place where summer evenings seem to last forever. Owner Anna Meyer drew inspiration from this and opened Eetcafé Edita (Amsterdam West), named after her grandmother.

Why you want to experience the flavors of Eetcafé Edita

Anna Meyer is only 29 years old, but she's known for a long time that she wanted to open a restaurant. And so it happened: Edita has recently become a reality—a fixture in Amsterdam-West, to be precise. And that's no surprise, because at Eetcafé Edita, the sun always seems to shine, and the ambiance makes you forget all your worries. It's the perfect place for an aperitif (including original Mexican cocktails) or for an evening of dining, as Southern Europeans are so good at.

Despite her young age, the owner has considerable experience. She worked for years as a waitress at the Michelin-starred restaurant De Kas in Amsterdam-Oost. When she told the chef she dreamed of owning her own restaurant, he urged her to create a good atmosphere, as that's what she excels at. She took his advice to heart, and Anna now works as a hostess at her restaurant.

Menu Eetcafé Edita Amsterdam

While almost every new restaurant in Amsterdam offers shared dining these days, Eetcafé Edita only serves large plates—and those are the ones you'd rather keep for yourself. The appetizers—like the Egg langoustine mayo—are perfect for sharing, but the main courses are ordered individually. The melanzane will transport you to Italy, the confit black-legged chicken with seasonal vegetables and lovage will transport you to the French countryside. And believe us: no dinner is complete without the millefeuille for dessert.

A grandma's cookbook. Three Michelin stars. And a beautiful 70s villa in a quiet neighborhood in Bangkok, where you are welcomed as if you were at the chefs' home. The Sühring brothers don't cook based on trends; they cook based on memories. Of their grandmother's farm, of the flavors of their youth in Germany, and of techniques passed down through generations. @relaischateaux invited me to experience Sühring during a solo lunch, and this is truly my ultimate definition of culinary self-care. This was a surprising afternoon in Bangkok, where I ate the best German food I have ever tasted. And that in a city where I normally avoid European restaurants. Well, for @restaurant_suhring, you really want to make that exception. Signature dishes that I still think back to regularly? 🍴 Labskaus with caviar 🍴 Enleta waffle with Pfalz vinegar 🍴 Game pâté 🍴 Dry-aged Duck TIP: When you go to Sühring, reserve seats at the kitchen bar so you have a view of the chefs at work! Follow @yourlbb for more tips you can trust. ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck #prinvited #bangkok #michelin #relaischateaux In this reels, I take you along for fine dining in Bangkok at the three-Michelin-starred restaurant Sühring.
This is one of the best free outings in the spring! Did you know that you can gather (or pick, for the connoisseurs 😉) oysters yourself at various locations in the Netherlands? I’m in Zeeland for a bit this weekend, and if we can make it, we’ll go again. 📍In this video, I show you where you can fill your bucket. Comment *oester* for the comprehensive guide with all the details about all 8 locations + handy tips and rules. Important to know: – Max. 10 kilos per person (≈ 1 bucket) – For personal use only – Do not scoop or scrape the seabed – Go at low tide Handy things to bring: Bucket, screwdriver, boots, work gloves, tea towel, clean clothes, and garbage bags (for the oysters *and* dirty clothes). And of course: bring an oyster knife, lemon, and champagne too 🍋🥂 Because you’ll want to taste something right away, won’t you! The oyster season runs from September to about April / early May, so now that the water isn't so cold, this is the perfect outing. In the full guide, I share exactly where you can easily find them, without much effort. Comment oyster and I'll send it to you right away! Who do you want to go oyster gathering with soon? ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck
𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 These are those few magical weeks each year when the city suddenly feels different. Everything is in bloom and all you want to do is be outside.

I'll definitely be doing a few more rounds before it's over. ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck _______________________________________________ 🌸 Discover the best places to spot cherry blossom in Amsterdam and enjoy the sakura in full bloom. 🌸
