Heertje Friet — Restaurant in Amsterdam

Chips under a chandelier is what you will find at Heertje Friet, a recently opened chip shop on Herengracht canal. Fries come in small, medium and large sizes and there is a good variety of sauces to choose from. Prepared from freshly cut potatoes, the fries are crunchy with a soft centre. There is a limited offering of typical Dutch snacks such as frikandel sausage, croquettes and bitterballen, deep fried meat balls.
