Oh my... step aside artisanal burgers, artisanal hot dogs are the next big thing. This is certainly…read moretrue for Bulls and Dogs. With a bold and innovative menu that ranges from soy hot dogs with hummus and popcorn to lamb hot dogs with harissa, there is seemingly a hot dog for every taste. So if you are looking for a trendy hot dog, look no further than Bulls and Dogs. It is the Crif Dogs (in New York) of Rotterdam minus the hidden bar behind the phone booth. We came to Bulls and Dogs on a rare sunny day in Rotterdam, and the picnic benches set up outside left a very nice relaxed, lazy summer evening atmosphere. Our jaws literally dropped to the floor when we saw the menu - so. much. choice. And real talk, those "freakalicious" milkshakes sounded truly freakalicious.. whatever that means. I had the Chocolate Chip Cookie Milkshake, the Smokey Pepper Dog and Curly Fries. Word to the wise, you should be really hungry and really ready to eat if you want to take up the challenge of eating all of this. The Chocolate Chip Cookie Milkshake was inspired - this beautiful chocolate chip cookie at the top literally crumbled in your mouth, and the cookies stuck on with Nutella at the mouth of the mason jar was ingenious. The whipped cream was so fluffy, and just sweet enough without being too overbearing. The milkshake itself was maybe not quite as viscous as I would like my milkshakes, lacking that creamy thickness you would usually expect. But when drunk with the hot dog, I definitely appreciated that it wasn't as thick. On its own, however, I probably would have appreciated a bit more creaminess. The Smokey Pepper Dog was delicious. The pretzel bun was the perfect texture, the sauce added this beautiful peppery taste to the hot dog. Visually, it was stunning - so much colour, very well plated. The taste was also pretty spot on. I think my biggest gripe with this hot dog in the end really came down to a matter of preference. I always find that a hot dog should have closer to a 50:50 ratio between bun and meat. This one was closer to 70:30 with much less meat than I would have liked. The hot dog was then drowned in this creamy harissa sauce which really made the hot dog a bit heavier than I would prefer, and made the "dog" much less of a star of the dish. Oh there was meat in there? Finally the curly fries - on point. Crispy, well-seasoned, perfect. All in all, it was an ambitious meal - very heavy on the stomach, but at the same time a very inventive, whimsical menu with a decent execution and beautiful presentation.

When in Amsterdam, one must have frites! This was highly recommended by our friend during a day…read moretrip to Den Haag. They fried it 2x so it's super crispy on the outside yet still soft and fluffy inside. There's nothing like it here in the US. *sad face* Their fries are cooked to order, so it does take a few minutes. We chose the fries with the Indo peanut sauce. Oh my, I can eat that sauce with anything! It's too bad there was more fries than sauce though. You could have the option to purchase additional regular sauce, but I was so stuffed by then. Great snacks to have while sightseeing in the area. Con is they only have 2 tiny tables in the store.

But we knew we had to try it, and life is short. It is a tiny stand located along a central canal in the heart of the city. Business is hopping here. We got the picked herring and kibbeling, which are the main staples here. The pickled herring was, well, something you either love or don't. It has somewhat of a gelatinous texture that can be off-putting, but when you take a bite with the sides of sweet pickles and onions, it shines. The Kibbeling was out of this world. Perfectly fried with a crunchy batter that had a hint of, hmmm, curry, maybe. It was amazing. Although the batter was thick and tasty, it didn't outdo the delicious cod. The staff here was friendly, and having this Dutch food along a canal in Amsterdam made for a memorable experience. There are plenty of places to sit near the stand - enjoy this tasty food and watch the world go by.

The space is quaint, cozy, and feels like stepping straight into a classic Dutch living room. If it's your first time or you just want a bit of everything, the stamppot combination plate is unbeatable. Getting to sample all three traditional mashes--hutspot, boerenkool, and zuurkool--paired with a juicy smoked sausage or traditional Dutch meatball is pure comfort on a plate. The Erwtensoep (Dutch pea soup) served with rye bread and smoked bacon is rich, thick, and incredible on a cool afternoon. Start off with the bitterballen or Dutch shrimp croquettes to share while you wait. Service is super friendly, welcoming, and effortlessly switches between languages without missing a beat. Because the dining room is small and intimate, it fills up remarkably fast--booking a table online in advance is essential, especially if you're aiming for dinner. A total gem for proper, unpretentious Dutch cuisine!

And despite ALL of our meals in Amsterdam being excellent, this one may have been the best. We wanted to try Dutch food, not totally knowing what to expect and were blown away by the combination of flavors and textures we consumed. We started with the pickled herring which was served with onions and pickles- fresh yet bold! I'm still thinking about those little fishies weeks later. Then we each had the sampler-ish plates (I forget what it was called). Hers was the vegetarian version and mine was with sausage. There were 3 kinds of essentially mashed potatoes with veggies mixed in: 1 with spinach I think, 1 with carrots, and 1 with sauerkraut. Mine came with a delightfully rich gravy and my moms came with some kind of lighter yellow sauce (I think mustard based). We tried these same dishes at other Dutch restaurants during our stay, but nothing beat The Pantry. The service in this quaint and cozy spot was also excellent!

I definitely will be back for more!

Passed a couple of places but the vibe of this restaurant seemed really happening and they had great pictures of their burgers in the window, so next thing we knew had walked in and were putting in our table orders. I decided to get a Burger Menu combo - burger, fries & a side dish for €16.50 and ordered the Asian Chicken Thriller and upgraded to Umami fries and small beet salad. My co-diner decided to do the same and got the Burger of the day along with Truffle paremesan fries and the Green Salad for her side. I enjoyed the chicken - was very well cooked, but initially the taste was too sweet for me. When got extra wasabi mayo, that bumped up the taste level for me. I didn't enjoy the Umami fries and the accompanying Black Garlic mayo was ok. The beet salad was a surprise as assumed it was more of a yogurt dressing but instead it was more like proper yogurt. This while tasty, didn't really fit into the rest of what I had ordered - I ended up having this as a dessert instead. Drink wise I got a ginger tea which was decent, but the glass I was served in was a bit dirty. Service was great, and the food was served very quickly. We split the bill and individual cost was €21 and change, so very reasonable. Also found out that the menu is prepared by a famous Dutch chef (a la Jamie Oliver) but he doesn't own the restaurant or anything, just changes the menu every 3-4 months. Our server also provided us with a comment card and along with the bill, we got these lovely coffee drops, which I much prefer to mint! Had a great time so I'd come back to this restaurant again.
