One of my favorite places to eat keto in Amsterdam is The Seafood Bar. In the same way I like the avocado dishes at The Avocado Show and the lettuce burger at FIVE Guys, I like the fish at The Seafood Bar.
The Seafood Bar is a modern seafood restaurant that offers a wide variety of the highest quality seafood, cooked in a simple and low-carb way. I love that most of the recipes at The Seafood Bar are keto.
