Best authentic pizza in Rotterdam, cooked in traditional stove. The place used to be an old school so interior is also interesting. Must-try the pistachio-mortadella pizza.

Local bars
Fun place to meet people. Usually busy during week-nights as well. I like the relaxed vibe and the different options it offers (street food, games, just beer).

Rain-proof jackets for the winter
Weather in The Netherlands is usually windy so, in case of rain, umbrellas can be proven useless. The best solution is a rain-proof jacket or raincoat that you can wear on top of your normal clothes.
