Boca’s

Bustling to the nines on a Friday night at 8, so much so that our table was still occupied and we decided to start our bottle of red wine at the bar. The wine list is short but good and affordable, we started with a light red negro from Italy and followed that with a more deep and full bodied lost luggage, which will be my tip to order when you go there. The menu is filled with gourmet nibbles, we went for the mixed platter which they kindly adapted for my friend who was longing for some dutch cheese as he was soon to board a plane to Italy for work the coming months. It boasted steak with chimichurri cooked perfectly, mackerel salad a delight, pâté, manchego and small pieces of bread to accompany it all. We were curious and two foodies and wine in abundance made for lobster roll delish! Gorgonzola with pear chutney… yum…gamba croquettes and olives… and there was still so much to taste but there was just no way we could manage… lethally enticing this place… The only way to get them a perfect score would be some veggy options on the menu and a broader winechoice… but for now a must visit for foodies in rdam.
