Tired of spending lots of money in junk food? Are you fed up with kebabs or vlaamse frites? Do you want to socialize with nice people?

So, all you need is a VoKu.

VoKu stands for Volks Küche, a German expression that means ‘People’s Kitchen’. A VoKu is a place where you can have healty vegetarian (or sometimes even vegan) meal for a little damage, and a good occasion to meet interesting Amsterdammers. Many squats and social centers across the city organize weekly VoKus. Here’s a partial list.

Binnenpret – every Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday

Joe’s Garage – every Monday and Thursday

Molly – every Thursday

De Peper at OT301 – every Tuesday, Friday and Sunday

Remember that the Dutch eat early and generally the vokus start at 7 pm. Don’t be late and remember to reserve your dinner in time, calling the phone numbers you’ll find on each website.

Eet smakelijk!
