There are not many dishes that jump out at being Dutch. Go to any Dutch supermarket and you will be presented with a host of cuisines from the far east as well as more closer to home.

Breakfast usually consists of bread, cheese and ham. Cheese would be either young which is fairly mild or old which has been left to mature longer so has a stronger taste. You may also find boiled eggs, bacon and sausage in many hotels to cater for a more varied taste. For the kids there are chocolate sprinkles. These are what you would would normally put on top of a cake but in Holland they are sprinkled onto buttered bread and eaten.

Lunch may also consist of bread, cheese and ham with sliced tomatoes or other salad items. It is quite common to drink milk with this and for the more adventurous a sour milk drink which is a bit like drinking milk textured yoghurt

There are a variety of popular meal items, chicken or pork on skewers served with a satay sauce and prawn crackers as well as a pickled vegetables. This probably has is roots back to its colonies.

Stew is popular cooked and served in a small lidded pot.

Rijsttafel (rice table) is popular in Indonesian restaurant's again from the colonies. It consists of a bowl or rice with a host of smaller dishes inc curry, salads, peanut, coconut. Its well worth trying as it gives you a little of everything and will satisfy even the largest of appetites.

Pancakes served with anything. These are large crepes but a little thicker. If in Holland it is always worth visiting one of these restaurants. The pancaked is put on the plate and the rest of the meal placed on top. You may have ham and cheese, apple and syrup, satay chicken. The list is endless. Be warned that these restaurants can close early since they are open from fairly early in the morning.

As well as the above dishes there is a host of other food that you would expect to find in a western society. There are the usual American Junk food outlets, but thankfully not too many. One thing you will find in continental Europe is that they do not tolerate bad food so wherever you go you are likely to get a decent feed.

And the coffee? The dutch do coffee very well and why not accompany it with a nice piece of apple cake and whipped cream.
