Meanwhile in Amsterdam …

I’ve written about the quirky foods of the Dutch before. But Amsterdam just added a whole new chapter to it.

While temperatures in the city of canals reach record breaking highs and making it the hottest September EVER! – Well, at least in recorded history. –

FeBo

The capitol city of The Netherlands takes it’s ridiculous (awesome!) food tradition of pulling greasy bar snacks straight from the wall even one step further …

Most likely struck by the extreme heat the good people of the FeBo snackbar (notorious for their ready-to-eat food walls) decided to celebrate their 75 year anniversary by opening a Float In version! (Dutch: “Drijf in”)

That’s right! They opened a waterfront wall stuffed with deep-fried comfort food allowing boats to float by and pull a croquet from the wall without even having to disembark their vessel.

Unfortunately it’s not yet a permanent display. But one thing is for sure. Whether it’s a stroke of genius or just a madman’s dream. Amsterdam just added a new dimension to the term “fast food” and are definitely in the running for the title of “Quirkiest food EVER”!

Well, at least in recorded history.
