That was my best gastronomic experience during a short stay in Am-dam - quick and nice. You chose a plate size, fill it up with vegetables you like, then you hand it over to a girl behind the counter - just name a sort of meat, way of cooking and dressing - options are marked above your head. Price was less than 10 Euros. Nice choice of cakes and pies.
Favorite Dish: apple pie with creamy sauce

La Place is a Dutch chain of inexpensive "fresh food" cafeterias with several locations in Amsterdam. We had a light brunch one day at "La Place" in central Amsterdam, the one with an entrance on Rokin. Good smoothies and fruit, and a light coffeecake that satisfied. Bright and modern-cheery.
Note that there is another entrance on the popular shopping street of Kalverstraat.

* choose and get your food yourself upstairs from the buffet and pay
* you can sit upstairs or downstairs
* healthy, fresh food
* (small) meals, pizza's, salads, fresh froods, bread, soup, desserts, or only coffee if you want
* every day open from 10.00 (mondays 11.00, sundays 12.00) till 18.30 o'clock. Thirsdays till 21.00 o'clock. So you have to eat early!
* the service is less experienced
There is also a place where you can buy food for take away at the other side of the building, at the Kalverstraat.

To describe V&D as a buffet is underselling it by a long long way. It is more of a food court where you can wander amongst the freshest food in town, pick the choicest delights and get it cooked before your very eyes. From prime steaks to suculent salads, sublime smoothies to hand pickes stir fries. A must for any visit to this great city.
Favorite Dish: This restaurant thrives on its selection, not one particular dish. The different combinations that you can create will have you coming back time and time again.

This is a foodcourt with a great choice of sandwiches, warm meals, salads, deserts etc. Prizes are rather low, around NLG 15 for a main course, NLG 4 for a piece of (lovely) cake. Portions are big. One of the places with the best value I found in Amsterdam!
Favorite Dish: The strawberry cakes!!!!! The chips!!! And the sandwiches looked nice, too!
