A diversion to Amsterdam for Spanish food

I found myself in the Jordaan this weekend, and had a hankering for Spanish food. Amsterdam's Jordaan neighborhood is surprisingly packed with highly rated options for tapas. Let me share three of my best finds with you:

1) La Oliva Pintxos y Vinos - Egelantiersstraat 122. La Olivia has its own Hyve and describes itself as a wine bar and restaurant that focuses on tapas and other Spanish specialties from the north of Spain.

2) Tasca Bellota - Herenstraat 22. The New York Times Travel review describes Tasca Bellota as "A high-end tapas bar that draws young professionals and families from nearby neighborhoods. A rustic-modern space with avocado green walls and smooth pine tables, it serves small Mediterranean dishes like chicken in a honey sauce and grilled scallops in butter."

3) Jottum, Taberna - 1e Anjeliersdwarsstraat 17. Taberna Jottum is listed on iens and is listed as another great option for tapas, with friendly staff and is open seven days a week.

Buen provecho!
