As we were only in Belgium for one night we wanted to have a great meal while we were there, so we researched places in Ghent as we were stopping there on our way to Amsterdam. So we were happy when we arrived at a local pub / bistro that was overflowing with locals as it was out of the main touristy area. Serving traditional Dutch style food, we ordered a couple of Belgium beers at once before deciding on what to eat. We finally settled on beef cooked in a milk sauce and beef cheeks in tomato butter sauce after a long discussion with the waitress as the menu was in Dutch. We were very greatful to the waitress as the meals that came out were sensational.
After arriving in Amsterdam I set to researching Dutch food and was keen to learn about Dutch pancakes and hot footed with Ryan to a local favorite - Pancakes! It was early morning so after recieving an excellent coffee, much required after a sleepless night camping we ordered a chocolate pancake and a flaming apple and cinnamon pancake. Though they look quite similar to French cakes they are slightly thicker and incredible tasty.
