One of our favourite meals in Amsterdam came from this street stall that features fish of various fins for convenient snacks.
The main attraction here: "broodje harring," the raw herring sandwich.
Looks slimy and unappetising but tastes amazing. Super-fresh fish with pickles and onions.
Smoked herring sandwich. Not as moist and juicy as the raw one, naturally.
Shrimp, stuffed to savoury succulence. Sensational.
Eel sandwich. Lusciously creamy; not a Filet-O-Fish for sure.
Warm, tender chunks of unidentifiable fish, encased in light, crisp batter that isn't greasy in the slightest.
