Even living in the Netherlands, I've yet to see a restaurant where you can actually order typical Dutch foods, eg. the mentioned boiled/mashed potatoes + meat + veggies or stamppot [1]
I've heard foreigners being quite fond of 'stroopwafels' though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroopwafel https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroopwafel

- spiderfarmer 10y agoWhat restaurants do you go to? In the Netherlands, if you pick a piece of meat it's almost always served with potatoes and vegetables. Depending on the season you can definitely order stamppot or hutspot. In most cities you can even order it and have it delivered, just like pizza.
- ragebol 10y agoTrue, you do get that a lot. Restaurant have nicer presentation than me and my mother do, I considered that more towards French cuisine [1] somehow. I've never seen something like wortelstamp/hutspot (mash of potatoes and carrots) with a smoked sausage in any restaurant. That, to me at least, is the epitome of the Dutch kitchen.
