Hogewoerd favourites

I am moving into my new house next week. Can't wait!
These are some things I'm looking forward to (the proximity to these things, at least):
  • Italian restaurant Sorrento. I haven't been there often myself yet, except for some take out pizza and a dinner with friends a few weeks ago. However, it is surprisingly nice. Very simple interior, with good decent food. Nothing fancy, but that's not always necessary to make things taste good! Will definitely try to be back here more often in the future. In any case, it beats Odessa, next door, for pasta. Not surprising really. Odessa is good for cheap microwaved pasta meals. If that's what you want it's fine, but definitely not haute cuisine. It's also a popular hang-out to have a drink at night.

  • Van Manen aan Tafel: a gorgeous shop with tableware and more. Very cool things, can't wait to start filling my house with this :)

Besides these two places that come to mind immediately, there are a bunch of cute cafe's and other shops in the street that I'm quite happy to be closer to. Also looking forward to be close to the Saturday market. I never really made an effort to get my groceries at the market, but while leaving in this street for two months a while back I realized that it really is much nicer than just the boring things in the supermarket.
Plus, now that I have a proper personal kitchen I can actually use all that stuff as well!
