So what is so special about cheese fondue, and how do you eat it? We must admit, we are not crazy about all cheeses served (some you love, some you…well, dislike) But cheese fondue is also something you can learn to eat. Like sushi, beer or coffee. Amsterdam has picked up the trend, and more and more restaurants are adding the cheesy dish to their menu. Let’s have a look at the best ones.

Smelt, Westerpark

Smelt is once again serving its classics during the dark winter months, such as the Swiss fondue consisting beautiful mountain cheeses. But also the Dutch homegrown cheeses such as Le Petit Doruvael and Twente Bunkerkaas. New this year is the Italian fondue made from Provolone Piccante, Parmigiano Reggiano, Fontina and Taleggio. All fondues are served with crusty sourdough bread from Fort Nine (famous for the best pastries) and fresh steamed seasonal vegetables.

Smelt originated as a collaboration between Café De Doffer and De Kaaskamer van Amsterdam. Located in a former coffee roastery in Westerpark, Smelt Westerpark is the second Smelt establishment in Amsterdam.
