Are you looking for a restaurant or take away food? Here are some options
Mout is a brewery and Foothall; close to our house. The food is a little overpriced, but a nice variety. The drinks are good and there is always a busy buzz.. nice to sit outside in summertime and stay close to the fireplace in wintertime.

This is a nice museum, if you like the history of Dutch television. It is good for children; a lot of fun. It is a walking distance from our home, but if you don't like to walk too much, you can take one stop with the train, to Hilversum-mediapark.

Shopping

Every wednesday and saturday till 16.00hrs, there is a big market very near our house (the other side of the railway). You can buy good quality vegetables, fish or cheese for a good price. If you like to buy cheese to bring home, skip the expensive shops in Amsterdam, go to 'Pronkjuweel', it is much better and a good price. If you tell them you want to bring the cheese home with you (for travel) they can vacuum it for you. For the best fish, you have to go to 'P.Bond en zonen'. Nice to combine with a cup of coffee in 'Mout'.

The name of the shop is 'Utopia'. This little shop is a good place if you want to buy some presents for your family. Not really typical Dutch, but nice little things. The owner is very nice and she will help you where she can. There is no sign on the window, so make sure you remember the address.
