    “Looking for a hidden gem that locals rave about? Omaira Eiland is a fantastic spot for an unusual take on seafood. When I lived in Rotterdam, I found this amazing place called 'Moby Dick' that served fried shrimp with extra spices and ravigote sauce—a 10/10 dish that I was hooked on. I went there so often that eventually, they’d just ask, “fried shrimp, extra spice and ravigote?” I guess I became a regular! After moving back to Amsterdam, I wasn’t sure if I’d find a similar spot. While Dutch people do great kibbeling, I knew Moroccan cuisine excels with shrimp. That’s why I was thrilled to discover Omaira Eiland. Having also lived in Zeeland, where I was used to fresh calamari fried the day after it was caught, I was worried I wouldn’t find that level of freshness in the city. Omaira Eiland impresses me with a similarly fresh and satisfying experience, even though it’s not right by the coast. If you’re in Amsterdam and craving excellent seafood, this place is definitely worth a visit.”
