deliplein rotterdam

Rotterdam - 23rd of November

Last Saturday we had a drink in De Volkskeuken of Verhalenhuis Belvédère at the corner of the Deliplein in Katendrecht, hotspot of Rotterdam. We loved the place! Open kitchen in an old-fashioned cafe, racks packed with plates, stunning stained glass windows in the staircase. Authentic, simple, real and pure and a super relaxed atmosphere. People from Rotterdam prepare their favorite dishes and at the same time share their stories with the public.

Katendrecht, Rotterdam - winter city walk on Saturday.

Once Rotterdam's Chinatown, Katendrecht is now home to the hip and happening.
Over the past few years, this district has become one of the liveliest parts of the city without losing its rougher edges.
Cute little eateries, restaurants and bars are around every corner these days. It's a dream destination for foodies.
We had lunch at Posse, a restaurant & shop, where you can find vintage, bicycles and books.

One of the old Fenixloodsen quayside warehouse, now accommodates the Fenix Food Factory. It's an indoor market with fresh foods, where you can shop for authentic and traditional products and nice to wander around on this very cold winter day.
