Avocado lovers, unite!
God has answered our prayers and there is now a full-fledged cafe that serves avo-everything! The Avocado Show in Amsterdam will be your new muse if you are a huge fan of the creamy, green superfruit.
Avocados are one of life’s greatest things and we enjoy it in any shape and form—on its own, as a smoothie, in our salads and poké bowls… the list goes on. And at The Avocado Show, you can enjoy this superfruit in many styles.
Surrounded by good vibes and avocados only, here’s everything to love at The Avocado Show, Amsterdam.
You wouldn’t miss this cafe that sits on Daniel Stalperstraat. Its long window are filled with the cutest avo decals. Step into the dimly-lit space and you are be greeted with lush velvety curtains, pink sofa seats, tables for big groups and wonderful vibes.
The Avocado Show isn’t your regular, gimmicky thematic cafe; they pride themselves in serving wholesome avocado dishes with the most visually-arresting plating. All avocados used are also from sustainable sources, and they come from different countries such as Chile, Peru, South Africa, as well as various certified farmers from all over the world.
On its menu, expect classic avocado dishes and contemporary creations as well as an array of avo-related drinks—all at very reasonable prices.
And an interesting thing to note: they only accept credit card payments. “For environmental and safety reasons,” they said.
The menu varies at different times of the day. On its breakfast menu (9am to 12pm), expect your usual egg dishes.
We loved the stunning The Spanish Surprise (€15) that is a flavourful stack of spicy chorizo, watercress and homemade Hollandaise Sauce & Salsa. And nope, you are not getting these on a brioche; they all sit atop avo halves! Bite into them all at once and you get a burst of creamy, spicy and salty notes altogether.
There are toasts and breakfast bowl options during breakfast too. The Heart Beat Rose (€9.50) is one of the most popular items for breakfast. Essentially an open-face sandwich, red beet hummus, pickled beets, black sesame seeds and an avocado-shaped into a rose sit atop a nicely toasted bread. The flavours are mild yet comforting. The other variation to try is the Pumpkin Panache Rose (€9.50).
Lunch happens between 12pm to 5pm at The Avocado Show, and apart from the pancake and toast options that you’d see from the breakfast menu, there is a special section of poké bowls and burgers that are said to be for “all that Instagrammable goodness”.
Skip your usual tea and coffee, and go for an avo smoothie or even an avo cocktail! See? We told you—avocado everything!
There are just two options for smoothies but hey, that’s good enough. Want something more exciting? Go for the cocktails—Avo Daiquiri or the Guaca Mary, both at €11.50 each!
