Automatiek
This is not really a restaurant tip, but about a unique Dutch way of selling snacks. I have been fascinated with these "snack machines" since the first time I saw them.
An Automat or AUTOMATIEK is a fast food, coin-operated vending machine where simple foods like hot, deep fried snacks and drinks are served. The Dutch FEBO stores provide a variety of sandwiches and croquettes (my favourite) which are back-loaded from a kitchen.
You just put in the required coin, then open the door for your favourite pick. Simple - easy!
The Automats are open 24 hours and are popular with locals and tourists alike.
Address: Most Dutch municipalities
Comparison: less expensive than average
Price: less than US$10
