Wow, amaze amaze amaze. I wanted to drink wine and eat charcuterie during our visit to Amsterdam and found a golden egg called Kaasbar which is a REVOLVING CHEESE BAR!
Reservations are recommended and you can choose to sit at the bar, at a table, or outside on a covered patio.
I reserved a table thinking I'd feel less rushed and not as cramped at the bar but would've gone with the bar next time.
We ordered Anne's Choice which was a board consisting of 6 cheeses of the chef's choice, nuts, grapes, crackers, pickled vegetables, and fig bread. We then added a side of salami.
Our favorite cheese was #9 which was a mild cheese served with cranberry ketchup. I also loved #19 which was a firm mild cheese topped with Dutch kimchi. The salami was nice and salty, smooth, and mild.
We washed everything down with a cider and a couple bottles of tripel beer. Service was exceptional and they are one well oiled machine moving and grooving together.
It's such a neat concept and quite the experience to try all sorts of Dutch cheeses. read more
