A DELICIOUS DAY IN BREDA ☀️ (what to do in the netherlands)

[@velsen232459]

Thank you dear people. I watched more of your videos this weekend and decided to go to TERSCHELLING again, after 15 years. Ik wacht op mooi weer; zonder storm en regen.

[@EdTheFlyingDutchMan]

Wow Alex, that was a perfectly pronounced “goedemorgen.” That gutteral G sounded like a real Dutch one. ;-) You sound like a real kaaskop, kudo's.

[@umbertoyltp]

That potato basket was a very beautiful piece of art!❤

Lovely to see you explore more south city's i live in Geertruidenberg and this is the oldest town of Holland! Come here in the summer on sundays and they have like people that re do the living in that time period with canons and so one! They called Bergsche Batterij. And the center is small but lit of beautiful old buildings. Thanks for your beautiful video from Breda❤ Greetings Maurice from Geertruidenberg

I love that the thing you guys decided was not a cookie is literally called 'not a cookie' in Brabants (ginne koek = not a cookie). Whether that's the origin of the name I have no idea!

[@buncharted]

haha that’s funny! the origin has to be the neighborhood it’s in but hey, who knows 😄

[@RikFTK]

The hood the baker is in is called Ginneken. But I'm pretty sure Ginnekoek is a pun based on the name of the area and not a cookie.

[@teszik]

​@@buncharted You're right the origin is the neighbourhood, Ginneken used to be a village. On January 1, 1942, the village of Ginneken was annexed by Breda.

I am glad you like my home city. Even my locak bakkery! You got the global big points correct, but let me know if you ever get back in Breda again. There are so many hidden gems.

[@Wowthisnameisntmine]

Okay, this is really really random... I'm from Breda and I just got this video recommended through KZbins magic. I was actually at SipFirst when you guys recorded this, I remembered it when I saw you're faces in the introduction. Then I paused the video as you walked up to the front door of SipFirst and I can see myself sitting in the restaurant on the right, exactly where I remember too!

[@paraglide01]

Funny lived in Breda for 40 years and you showed me more of my own town in 14 minutes. I didnt know FoodHall was open again. Thanks gonna give that carbonara a try.

[@Krystalfaye]

There’s Cholula at the expat shop in Utrecht. Also I did enjoy that montage, very artistic.

[@buncharted]

we found it at the expat shop in rotterdam! i have no clue how we missed it before… we’ve been eating eggs with it like three times a week since finding it 😂

[@pianistsdream]

Found your video by chance. I'm an expat from the UK and have lived in the Netherlands fr more than 30 years. When you were at Baker Joppen you were literally over the road from my house. If you ever need a broader look at this city, I would be happy to show you around.

“Expat” you’re an established immigrant. Expats are ephemeral and have no long term plan to stay and are here solely for work.

Hi Michelle & Alex, I saw on Instagram that you wanted people to choose a city which you should visit, and Tiel, Geldermalsen and Den Bosch being the options. I have three other places for you should visit being: - Alkmaar, the wonderful city where on October 8th 1573 the Dutch victory began in the Eighty Years War against the Spanish. - Egmond aan Zee, a beautiful North Sea village dating back to the year 977 A.D. with also a Viking heritage, 10 kilometers from Alkmaar. - Den Helder, the Naval Port of The Netherlands at 41 kilometers from Alkmaar, being the hub for taking a trip to the island of Texel by ferry, which will take you 20 minutes. I’m sure you won’t regret visiting these places.

[@Raevan1957]

When you are still there go to "Klein Java" restaurant .. one of the authentic indonesian restaurant.

[@whatElse88]

Good one!

[@ilex471]

Although I have lived in Dordrecht my entire life, I was actually born in Breda, my mother's family is from there, and I know my way around the city-center fairly well. Did you happen to notice the icecream parlour in the vicinity of that potato place where you went? It is one of the best in the country. I know it's a little too cold to enjoy icecream now, but you really should go there if you go to Breda again. I don't know if you like icecream (or gelato, more specifically), because there are some very good gelato-shops in the Netherlands (and I don't mean those tourist-traps in Amsterdam where they charge you an arm and a leg for a tiny portion of factory-made icecream). The one in Dordrecht at the Vest is called La Venezia, and is one of the oldest Italian icecream parlours in the Netherlands. There used to be three good gelato-shops in Dordrecht city-center until very recently, but for some reason, only the oldest one is still there.

There is so much other things to do in Breda. Try next time get in the boat and do the ‘singels’ tour. Also you forget to mention. Breda got a extensive military history. Was important strategic city during the 80 year war. Originally a Garrison town. And host the Dutch version of West Point. Kasteel Breda is a part of the military academy and officers training.

You live in Dordrecht and have you ever been to Vila Augustus. looks like Hotel New York.

Potatoes are great in just about any way. Fried, grilled in the oven, on the bbq, in stews, gratins, mashed with some gravy. Did you know you can survive on a diet of nothing but potatoes, butter and milk? If you eat them in the skin instead of peeling them, that is. And if you have any potatoes left after all that cooking, you can make liquor with them.

Vandestreek is a nice beer to drink but it is from utrecht and Breda has several breweries at the same level. Maybe next time?

[@buncharted]

with non-alcoholic beer? that's what i love about van de streek, their 0.0% options are great

[@RJA6508]

Indeed, most breweries have very good beers with alcohol and low alcohol options are not always available but Breda has many breweries. 5 or six in the town (depending how you count and if you draw a circle of about 10 km around the town, you have 10 more. If you like van de streek, you probably also like Juice Punch from frontaal (0.5 Hazy IPA). Other decent low alcohol beers are are Witte anker:0.5 hoppy Weizen and Bliksem: 0.3 hoppy blond

@@bunchartedthen you have passed and missed Bergen op Zoom with the most beautifull mediëval palace you will see in the Netherlands and good eating. If you like real Italian food go to Napoli. I recommend Pasta a la parmigiano con tartufo nero or if your walt hungry one of the menu’s. 1397 is also worth a try. Called after the year the town burned down, except the hotel were it is located, the oldest hotel in the Netherlands de Draak and part of Het stadhuis de Olifant. Because the towns archive were burned nobody knows excactly how old de Draak is, but it is at least from 1397. The whole old town is a juwel if you ignore the first floors were the shops are located. Also visit the verborgen vesting. There are also two big war cemeteries, where the dead of the battle of the Scheldt are burried. Each year in october all the Canadians fallen in the Netherlands in WW2 are remembered there. This year it is the 80 ago that Bergen op Zoom was liberated

[@DenUitvreter]

I think potatoes have the reputation of not being culinary at all, too much old fashioned homecooking. A lot of the potato dishes are also with seperate vegegtables and meat, the so called AVG, which is 3 or 4 pans and over half an hour of cooking, which is fine for a whole family meal but not inviting to young people. But also the pre peeled supermarket potatoes don't have much taste and fresh potatoes have been bred to be easier for the whole chain and easier to peel at the expense of taste. I eat a lot of them but only when I found a nice breed then after a few months the supermarket, Aldi for potatoes usually, switches to another brand that is in season.

12:25 potato potato. We Dutchies were like that too. Makes sense why Van Gogh has made a painting called: de aardappeleters. But since growing up as a kid it was every day cooked potatoes, mashed patotatoes with overcooked vegetable and meat. Aka aardappel groente vlees hence AVG. I grew bored about it being the main dish ingrediënt. Same goes for my sister. I rather eat pasta, rice, noodles, everything but plain old potatoes. So I get why that restaurant has chosen the potato to showcase the versatility. Sure I enjoy some stamppot in winter, and ofc gimme some good fries. But other than that I'm done with plain potatoes anyway. About Breda and Ginnekoek: da benne gene koek jonguh. Even though I am not from Brabant I get the name now. And I am not fond of the donut. Also I've only been to Breda also as a way to connect to other places. Like Den Bosch, Eindhoven en Maastricht. I rather take a bosschebol or Brabants worstenbroodje. Nice pun with that last one though! 😏
