“A Day in Gouda” is a first in a series of posts about The Netherlands beyond Amsterdam.\u00a0 As many of you know, I’m married to a Dutchman and he’s very, very proud of his orange roots. Many Americans travel to The Netherlands but they opt to stay in Amsterdam. Sadly, they are missing out. Whether it is the modern architecture of Rotterdam or the fairy tale like town of Giethoorn, there’s so much to see beyond the fabled canals of Amsterdam. This summer I had the opportunity to spend a day in Gouda, a small city south of Amsterdam.\u00a0Beyond the cheese and the charming architecture, Gouda is a quaint city with friendly people and it gives you a snapshot of Dutch culinary history.<\/p>\n

Getting There:<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0It’s easy to spend a day in Gouda.\u00a0 It’s only a 50-60\u00a0minute train ride from Amsterdam Centraal Station. Check out my transportation guide to The Netherlands<\/a> for more details on how to get there.<\/p>\n

Dining Traveler Guide to a Day in Gouda:<\/h2>\n

Where to Eat: \u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\"Day<\/a>
Trying my hand at Stroopwafels at Bakery van den Berg<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Even if you’re going to spend one day in Gouda, make sure to make space for good food!\u00a0 What I love about the city\u00a0is that you can really experience the history of some of the food items the Dutch revere most without the crowded shops you will see in Amsterdam.\u00a0 One Dutch beloved food item\u00a0is the stroopwafel.\u00a0 These thin wafers filled with caramel are a favorite of the Dutch and every visitor who encounters these little treats immediately falls in love with them. Head to\u00a0Bakery van Den Berg<\/a>\u00a0(Lange Groenendaal 32)\u00a0just walking distance from the city center. There, you can get stroopwafels fresh off the production line (they are still made by hand in the back), a selection of desserts made with stroopwafels, and even stroopwafel liqueur!<\/p>\n

\"Day<\/a>
Lunch in Gouda Chocoladefabriek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We\u00a0enjoyed our\u00a0lunch at\u00a0Chocoladefabriek<\/a>. Don’t be fooled by the “Chocolate Factory” name. This cool cafe and bookstore concept was filled with locals catching up, taking their lunch break, or simply immersed in their books sipping some coffee. I had a fun menu with small dishes all inspired by Gouda cheese: a slider smothered in cheese, a quiche, and cheese soup. Delicious.<\/p>\n

\"Day<\/a>
Dinner at Viejee’s Restaurant<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Dining in Gouda: \u00a0Gouda is filled with cozy, small restaurants. We dined at Viejee’s a cute restaurant owned by a lively young couple who serve as the hosts, managers, and even waiters.\u00a0 The service is very personalized as we could observe the owners socializing with the diners around us.\u00a0 Although they have a menu of small plates, their specialty is a chef’s table with a sampler of some of the chef’s favorite dishes. We enjoyed the\u00a0savory seared meats, grilled veggies, and the delicious bread (another food item the Dutch excel at!) with our dinner service. A must dine if you spend a day in Gouda (or a week for that matter!).<\/p>\n

What to do:<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n

\"Day<\/a>
At the Cheese and Craft Museum in Gouda<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Gouda Cheese Museum: \u00a0One of the first things that people associate with Gouda is cheese as it is one of the most popular products coming from the city.\u00a0 If you are a fan of mature, hard cheese, you will love Dutch cheese. I will admit, one of the first words I learned in Dutch was “kaas” (cheese).\u00a0 If you’re going to spend a day in Gouda, your first stop should be\u00a0at the\u00a0Cheese and Craft Museum<\/a>. This historic building was a weighing station for all the cheese traded in Gouda. There, you can also purchase a large selection of cheese, go for a guided tour and tasting, and learn about the history of one of Holland’s most renowned product.<\/p>\n

\"Day<\/a>
Cows at\u00a0Kaasboerderij Jongenhoeve<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Walk it off: \u00a0Between the stroopwafels and the bread, one must workout after all the amazing food. The great news is that Gouda is tiny so you can literally experience the whole city by foot. Take a stroll along its maze of cobblestone streets and alleys.\u00a0 Go on a tour of Sint Jan Church, an immensely beautiful Gothic church in the city center. The beautiful collection of stained glass windows is one of its kind.\u00a0 If you really want to go local, rent a bicycle to explore more of the city.\u00a0 Here’s\u00a0a list<\/a>\u00a0where you can rent a bicycle.<\/p>\n

\"Day<\/a>
Cheese at ‘t Kaaswinkeltje<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Shop: \u00a0Stock up on cheese at a local cheese shop such as ‘t Kaaswinkeltje (Lange Tiendeweg 30, 2801 KH Gouda)\u00a0and\u00a0local beer and Dutch genever (a traditional spirit) at the local owned\u00a0Beer House Den Gouwen Aar. If you come by car, I highly recommend going to\u00a0Kaasboerderij Jongenhoeve,\u00a0<\/em>a family owned farm which produces raw milk cheese. We took a free tour of the farm where we got to meet the hardworking cows, witness the cheesemaking process, and the best part, buy tons of cheese.<\/p>\n

\"Day<\/a>
Streets of Gouda<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Where to stay:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

We stayed at\u00a0Guesthouse the Utrechtsche Dom<\/a>, a tiny guesthouse on a small side street in the city center. The room was comfortable, friendly service, affordable (less than 90 EUR a night), and the breakfast was good. We loved its location as it was walking distance to all of the attractions of the city.\u00a0Bonus: you must go to the hat shop\u00a0Hoedenhuis<\/em>\u00a0‘t Matelootje,\u00a0<\/em>located across the street from the guesthouse. The ladies who work there are the sweetest, I bought the most beautiful hat for a wedding I was attending in Sicily for just 25 Euros during their summer sales.<\/p>\n

\"Beer<\/a>

The Verdict:<\/em><\/strong> If you want to experience authentic Dutch hospitality, great food, and culture without the crazy crowds, this city is for you. Whether you spend a day in Gouda or a weekend, you will feel more acquainted with Dutch culture. I most certainly did! This trip is ideal for: couples, friends (I went with my friend Maribel, and families.<\/p>\n
