They may not be IG gold, but for me these garlicky vineyard snails were an absolute highlight of our #iensinsider lunch yesterday at #brasserieambassade. There was so much good stuff on the table yet I kept going back (and back again) for these.🍋🥖🐌 🍇 #amsterdameats #amsterdamrestaurants #amsterdamrestaurantguide #snails #frenchfood #wheretoeatinamsterdam #frenchrestaurant #expatsinamsterdam #visitamsterdam #foodstagram #lekker #iensinsiderboatevent #gramthedam #amsterdamrestaurantguide #instafood #iamsterdammagazine #iamsterdam (at Brasserie Ambassade)

Tbt a lovely recent lunch sampling the debut menu of Bord'Eau's new chef, Bas van Kranen. Pictured: red mullet in 'leche de tigre' with coriander cream and Inca berry.

Tbt this memorable meat-free dish of #fregola with #seaweed #dashi and "the perfect egg" at one of my favourite recent opens: @restaurantaceamsterdam. A perfect balance of flavour and texture! #wheretoeatdinnerinamsterdam #lekker #utrechtsestraat #centrumrestaurants #amsterdamrestaurantguide #instafood #romanticrestaurants #igersamsterdam #restaurantace #restaurantguide #meatfree #vegetarianfood #delicious #vegetariansofig #amsterdamguide #gramthedam #expatsinamsterdam #iamsterdam (at Restaurant ACE Amsterdam)

The impeccably prepared #BeefWellington at Conservatorium Hotel was a highlight this week. It's on the special #ChristmasCelebrationMenu, available at the #TheBrasserie on 25 and 26 December. #christmas2017 #wheretoeat #instaxmas #amsterdamrestaurantguide #instafood #conservatoriumhotel #bestofbritish #schilovancoevorden #amsterdamguide #amsterdamhotels #zuidrestaurants #amsterdamrestaurants #verygooddish #expatsinamsterdam #igersamsterdam #gramthedam #iamsterdam (at Conservatorium Hotel)

Tbt a relatively wholesome lunch last week at Jacks Juice & Kitchen in De Pijp. I hear they will also be launching a healthy breakfast menu soon... #amsterdamlunchspots #instafood #beetjuice #sandwich #juicebars #wheretoeatlunchinamsterdam #amsterdamguide #instahealthy #amsterdamrestaurantguide #amsterdamtravel #gramthedam #igersamsterdam #expatsinamsterdam #lunch #DePijpguide #iamsterdam (at JACKS - Juice & Kitchen)

Not the prettiest sight - brown food rarely is - but these ribs at the press preview of @pigs_and_punch were bang on. The fennel sausages and pork cheeks (a little less salt next time) were also good, and the punch bowls were multi-layered, boozy and well-balanced (we'd expect no less from the peeps behind Door 74). What needs some work is the pulled pork (neither smoky nor tangy), burgers (dry) and acoustics (tinny!). I love the idea of the concept, but would ditch the cheffy "refined" starters and go all-out pork heaven with rustic pork pate, head cheese, crispy pork belly, ham platters, etc. Because if you're going to call yourself Pigs & Punch it should be all or nothing. And nobody is going to choose a place with that name expecting vegetarian food or fish anyway. 💪🍗🥓🍸 #meat #pork #cocktails #instafood #amsterdamrestaurants #gramthedam #amsterdamguide #igersamsterdam #amsterdamrestaurantguide #instadrinks #wheretoeatinamsterdam #ribs #centrumrestaurants #iamsterdam (at Pigs&Punch Amsterdam)

Earlier this week, I ordered the Hakata Deluxe ramen at #RamenYa with high expectations - after all, I'd heard glowing reports from several local foodies and even a famous chef - but I ended up disappointed anyway. My bowl had unpleasantly fatty char siu swimming in a broth that tasted greasy rather than creamy, with an indigestable tangle of raw leek. Off day? New chef? Or are there just better places now? For good #tonkatsu ramen #sappororamensora is still my favourite - by a mile! #wherenottoeatramen #ramenfail #wherenottoeat #sorrynotsorry #ramen #amsterdamfood #overrated #amsterdamguide #amsterdamramen #amsterdamrestaurantguide #igers #cheapeatsamsterdam #gramthedam #eatingamsterdam #iamsterdam (at Ramen-Ya Amsterdam)
