Markthal Has It All ✨🤩

 It would be remiss of me not to include some great places in Rotterdam that I visited but didn’t have time to take photos of. 🤓

 📢So here is a quick list of some great stops at and near the Rotterdam Markthal 📢

🍴Ekmekci @ekmekci_nl

 It seems like they were known for their Gozleme, which looked and smelled amazing. However, I was too much in a rush, so I just ordered the XL Siggar Feta and Spinach Burek to go and it was perfect.*

 🧇Goudstroop @goudstroop

 A bit expensive, but if you are looking for arguably one of the best and most convent stroopwafels in the Netherlands, this is a stop you must make. They will make it for you fresh on demand. Or, you can pick up a tin at any local grocery store - but fresh is hard to beat once you’ve tried it once.

 🍜Takumi Ramen @takumimarkthal

 There are a bunch of these everywhere, but if it’s good, it’s good. I had the Spicy Ebi Kara Age Ramen, which sounds all over the place - and it was - but in the best way. I would eat that once a week for the rest of my life, it satisfied all of my cravings at once.

 🍜Hinoki Noodle Soup @hinoki_rotterdam

Another fantastic ramen stop that is just a few steps from Markthal and much more unique. I ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen Black-Special - it was amazing. I highly recommend it if you are a slut for garlic like myself.

🍸 Spikizi Bar @spikizibar

This is quite far from the Markthal but is worth the walk for their unique and tasty craft cocktails and super sweet and knowledgable bartenders. It's also a super intimate and cool space. I ordered the Ultima Palabra because I’m obsessed with mezcal.

 * 👀I miss burek so much after first having it in Novi Sad a few years ago! If you know of any great places, comment below - I don’t care where in the world it is, I will find it!!!☕️

 **Also, a bit of advice - many small towns and neighborhoods around Rotterdam (Like Schiedam) do not accept Visa or MasterCard, but usually grocery stores will have an ATM. Additionally, vendors at Markthal do not like large bill cash, so make sure you carry change or have a card handy!
