Where to Eat and Drink

Frituur 't Stad
@parthapratimboruah
'Frituur' stands for fast-food / snack bar in Dutch. This place serves fast food such as french fries (known as "frites" in Dutch), snacks like frikandel, bitterballen, and croquettes, as well as other deep-fried items. Frituurs are popular places to grab a quick and tasty snack or meal, and they are a common sight in many towns and cities in Belgium and the Netherlands. It's a good alternate of McD and other chains, to try Dutch fast food.
