Amsterdam is all about waffles and fries. Street vendorsall over the city sell waffles adorned in chocolate, nuts, icing and any other confectionary deliciousness you could think of. Fry vendors are just as popular, and the condiments included are almost as extensive. While we indulged inthese Netherlands diet staples, we also ate Italian and Mexican food just to see if the Dutch could pull it off.

After hours of searching for a Mexican restaurant that we heard was good (we ended up going there the next night), we settled on La Vita for some pizza. Bottom line: the pizza is okay, the calzones are HUGE and Heineken is cheap.

We finally found our mystery restaurant on the second night. Bottom line: everything is overpriced, the portion sizes aren't very big, but you get a bowl of free chips before your meal (take note: A free bowl, singular).

Delicious but overpriced margarita
