Murmur Amsterdam-Noord: the new bar that stands out from the rest

Amsterdam North continues to grow in popularity, and Murmur Amsterdam is making a significant contribution. When you approach from the street, Murmur is practically invisible, which is a shame, but also a good thing. This way, the place retains its mystical character, and you feel like you're in some kind of alternative speakeasy bar. And that's how this relatively new bar became one of the most important hotspots in Amsterdam-Noord.

Why you should visit Murmur Amsterdam

"Sometimes open on Thursdays" perfectly captures Murmur's unique character. Murmur Amsterdam is quirky, rugged, raw, refined, and alternative: exactly what you'd expect from a bar/restaurant in Amsterdam-Noord, yet different. Upon entering, you're greeted by a cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. The interior is a cohesive whole, without appearing cluttered. Incidentally, this place describes itself as a "listening bar"—a term that refers to the many performances they host, often on Fridays and Saturdays, and exceptionally on Thursdays. When there's no live music, the vinyl records are played to death.

Menu Murmur

Murmur's menu is compact but nevertheless has everything you could wish for, without any choice overload. The dish of the week is variable (as the name suggests) and somewhat larger, while the other dishes are better categorized as snacks and small bites. The smoked almonds are crispy, the forcaccia with olive oil is impossible to get enough of, and the Greek strawberry salad with feta is a definite keeper, if it's up to us.

Come with me to get breakfast in Taipei 🥢

Straight from the airport to this little place to taste soup dumplings and so much more! That's what I call a soft landing 😉 <3

In Taipei, you go to a Soy Milk Shop for breakfast. Warm soy milk to eat in a bowl, and steam baskets with the tastiest dumplings and baozi. You can really wake me up for this kind of breakfast. These local breakfast spots come in all shapes and sizes, from Michelin-recommended spots to hole-in-the-wall stalls.

Most soy milk shops open early (and sometimes even 24 hours a day), and these are the dishes you want to try:
🥄 Warm soy milk
🥢 Soup dumplings (you can often choose between pork and veggies)
🥢 Pork baozi
🥢 Youtiao (油條 - a kind of fried donut stick)
🥢 Youtiao (油條) w/ pork floss & rice
🥢 Turnip cake
🥢 Chives pancake
🥢 Scallion pancake

TIP: Sharing is a good idea to taste as much as possible, because the portions are (often) large.

You'll want to remember these soy milk shops for your future trip to Taipei:
📍Fuhang Soy Milk
📍Soy Milk Shop
📍Yong He Soya Milk King (Da'an)
📍Sihai Soy Milk

I am currently touring Taiwan, and you can also find all the tips in my Stories Highlight.

Have you ever been to Taiwan? I'm curious if you thought it was *that* amazing!

Just back from Catalonia and I thought: I'll share some tips right away.

During our road trip, we stayed two nights in the Ebro Delta. An incredibly fun stop for families and foodies, where there is plenty to do.

• A boat trip to the Musclarium is a must! Here you eat oysters and mussels straight from the farm, in the middle of the sea.

· Admire the flamingos and black ibises that can be found here all year round.

· Rice is grown in the Ebro Delta all year round. For paella, but Kensho also makes sake and miso from it! You can visit them during a tasting.

Cycling along the rice fields, canoeing on the Ebro River, and visiting various beaches. It was still a bit too cold right now, but there is plenty to do.

• The towns are very low-key and not that exciting, but you can find fantastic local food there. From the Michelin-awarded Les Moles* to local eateries like Vermuteria Bonmarisc and Lo Tinglado. We ate a lot of fish, but also anemone fritters (a first!).

Now back to work, and I’m going to create an extensive travel guide of this road trip through Catalonia, but you’ll want to save these tips for a future adventure.
