Taste of Amsterdam 2010 …

The event was in Amsterdam in the green Amstelpark. The weather was amazing as well the food.
We (A., E. and myself) have decided to visit the lunch part and have arrived at app. 12:30 with a good mood and the empty stomach. Nice atmosphere, workshops and shows in the tents, small snacks ant tasting outside just in front of the stands.
We have started with the restaurants and had: Smart Bun with vegetarian curry, smart Bun with Peking Duck at JULIUS and Tuna with soya-wasabi marshmallows and green apple at LUTE. It was just a good beginning. Further we enjoyed Tagliatelle with backed mushrooms, caramelized shallots, balsamic vinegar, parmesan and truffles and as addition Coquille, Crayfish and passion fruit at Lola’s.
It is just amazing what kind of taste the kooks can make from simple ingredients. At MOMO we went for MOMO roll : tuna, salmon and sea bass with avocado and spicy tarragon miso with tempura crunchy and at Toscannini I had salad with mozzarella and vegetables and E. sausage from the grill…
I did some small shopping as well:
- Sla dressing (Raspberry and Mustard)
- Irish Country Relish (Tomato souse)
- Fig chutney (Made by Old Amsterdam)
- Honey tomatoes
The best surprise was Strawberry Ice-cream with the chili pepper, sweet with the hot aftertaste and Gruner Veltliner white wine.

Next year we will join again!
