11x beautiful kitchen goodies to show that you’re from Rotterdam (well, maybe not?)

The FavorFlav editorial team is firmly based in the capital, and we’re usually pretty happy about that. Until… we saw this seriously cool merchandise go by. Naturally, we immediately fell for everything to do with food and drink. Too much fun!

Amsterdam is fun, North Holland is fine, but a weekend in Rotterdam should be perfectly bearable too. At least, if you take a look at these lovely souvenirs. Because Rotterdam, well, it really is a city apart. With its own sense of humor (love it) and a very distinctive accent (contagious). The webshop Kom ie uit Rotterdam dan knows exactly what makes Rotterdammers happy. Nothing sponsored about this, just genuine enthusiasm: what fun little goodies they sell there. And look at that button: Chuck it in your basket. You bet we will!

 

Warmly welcome

A little baffled by that bizarre sense of humor in 010? Then take a look at this video, in which Martin Waardenburg explains, with his hands deep in his pockets and in typically Rotterdam fashion, why Rotterdam is so incredibly gezellig. ‘Tourists, whoa there,’ he says. ‘Let’s just let them stay happily in Amsterdam.’
