It’s official: Amsterdam has fallen for the foodie-phenomenon-on-wheels known as food trucks. But since our narrow canal-bridged city streets aren’t quite as conducive to having food trucks on them every day as some, we came up with a slightly different way of dishing things out. Food trucks in Amsterdam can generally be found at food festivals and food truck fests exclusively; and, luckily for us, there are enough of these events going on to keep our tummies constantly full. Here are our favorite food trucks in Amsterdam and how to find out where to get your fix of their fare.

5 Best Food Trucks in Amsterdam

The Beef Chief

The Beef Chief has mastered the art of the burger with a menu full of classics and exotic specialties. When you bite into one of The Beef Chief’s freshly made juicy burgers, your taste buds are in for a treat, and possibly a trip to the Far East. In addition to classic carnivore concoctions like bacon and cheese, The Beef Chief is famous for topping his burgers with the Korean specialty Kimchi, which – when combined with the juicy beef – produces a spicy-and-sour surprise.
