As a student I used to work in the Honig factory. In the former soup department you find Stoom.
In a tapas restaurant, you get all kinds of small bites. You know what you are gonna get. In "Stoom" you can oder "dishes". No-one told us, it is only one snack, and you have to order side dishes if you want it to be a whole meal. What you get for 8,50€ is one slice of sweet potatoe withy either three tiny pieces of lamb or a pinch of creamcheese and a few lentils. That's all.

All in all, very cool place to come back to, it would have been best to know some tips in advance and to book a table to avoid waiting with a beer...
Read moreDon't go here for the food, it's way overpriced for what you're getting. Pretty certain they use frozen patties for the burgers. Plating of the ice cream was on a flat board and a paper(??) so that you have extreme trouble eating it without spilling and also get a taste of the paper they put under it. The buffalo chicken wings were spiced to taste like ham. The portion size was relatively small. Overall not a great experience. They have a wide selection of beers though and the location...
