Street food around the world - Amsterdam
Amsterdam is the capital city and most populous city of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Its status as the Dutch capital is mandated by the Constitution of the Netherlands though it is not the seat of the Dutch government, which is The Hague. Amsterdam has a population of 813,562 within the city-proper, 1,112,165 in the urban region and 1,575,263 in the greater metropolitan area. The city itself, contrary to the Dutch national institute of statistics, calculates the number of inhabitants in the greater metropolitan area to be 2,332,773. The city is located in the province of North Holland in the west of the country. It comprises much of the northern part of the Randstad, one of the larger conurbations in Europe, with a population of approximately 7 million.
Amsterdam's name derives from Amstelredamme, indicative of the city's origin as a dam of the river Amstel. Originating as a small fishing village in the late 12th century, Amsterdam became one of the most important ports in the world during the Dutch Golden Age (17th century), a result of its innovative developments in trade. During that time, the city was the leading center for finance and diamonds. In the 19th and 20th centuries, the city expanded, and many new neighborhoods and suburbs were planned and built. The 17th-century canals of Amsterdam and the 19–20th century Defence Line of Amsterdam are on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
As the commercial capital of the Netherlands and one of the top financial centres in Europe, Amsterdam is considered an alpha world city by the Globalization and World Cities (GaWC) study group. The city is also the cultural capital of the Netherlands. Many large Dutch institutions have their headquarters there, and seven of the world's 500 largest companies, including Philips and ING, are based in the city. In 2012, Amsterdam was ranked the second best city in which to live by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) and 12th globally on quality of living by Mercer. The city was previously ranked 3rd in innovation by 2thinknow in the Innovation Cities Index 2009.
The Amsterdam Stock Exchange, the oldest stock exchange in the world, is located in the city center. Amsterdam's main attractions, including its historic canals, the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum, Stedelijk Museum, Hermitage Amsterdam, Anne Frank House, Amsterdam Museum, its red-light district, and its many cannabis coffee shops draw more than 3.66 million international visitors annually.
Dutch cuisine consists of the cooking traditions and practices from the Netherlands. The country's cuisine is shaped by the practice of fishing and farming, including the cultivation of the soil for raising crops and the raising of domesticated animals, and the history of the Netherlands.
Traditionally, Dutch cuisine is simple and straightforward, with many vegetables and little meat; breakfast and lunch are typically bread with toppings while dinner is meat and potatoes, supplemented with seasonal vegetables. The Dutch diet was relatively high in carbohydrates and fat, reflecting the dietary need of the laborers whose culture molded the country, and contains many dairy products. Without many refinements, it is best described as rustic, though many holidays are still celebrated with special foods. In the course of the twentieth century this diet changed and became much more cosmopolitan, with most international cuisines being represented in the major cities.

Ẩm thực Hà Lan bao gồm các truyền thống nấu ăn và thực hành từ Hà Lan. Ẩm thực của đất nước được hình thành bởi sự thực hành của cá và nông nghiệp, bao gồm cả việc trồng trong đất để nuôi cây trồng và chăn thả gia súc, và lịch sử của Hà Lan.
Theo truyền thống, ẩm thực Hà Lan là đơn giản và dễ hiểu, với nhiều rau và ít thịt; bữa ăn sáng và ăn trưa với bánh mì thường toppings khi ăn tối là thịt và khoai tây, có bổ sung các loại rau theo mùa. Các chế độ ăn uống của Hà Lan là tương đối cao trong carbohydrates và chất béo, phản ánh nhu cầu ăn uống của những người lao động có văn hóa đúc đất nước, và chứa rất nhiều các sản phẩm từ sữa. Nếu không có nhiều cải tiến, nó được mô tả như là mộc mạc, mặc dù nhiều ngày lễ vẫn được tổ chức với các loại thực phẩm đặc biệt. Trong suốt thế kỷ XX chế độ ăn uống này đã thay đổi và trở thành nhiều hơn nữa có tính quốc tế, với hầu hết các món ăn quốc tế được thể hiện ở các thành phố lớn.
