QUE Pasa Spaanse Tapas BAR

My husband and I had just gotten in to a nearby hotel after 27 hours on planes, trains, and automobiles for our Five-​City European Honeymoon Tour in mid-​June. Que Pasa was right down the street, so we decided to give it a try.
After popping our heads inside the restaurant, we decided to sit outside by the street. The server (possibly the owner?) turned on the heater next to our table, which took some of the chill off on an overcast summer evening. He quickly gave us some menus and took our drink orders. From what I remember, they had a pretty good selection of local beers. There is a multi-​lingual menu with numbers, so ordering was really easy.
We ordered four tapas: Asparagus, Beef Tenderloin, Mixed Paella, and Vegetable Empanadas.
Now, I have actually been to Barcelona before. However, the paella I had there was disappointing (I admit, my friends and I didn’t choose the best spot). If I had known the paella at this place was so good, I would have ordered the regular-​sized portion! Fresh seafood, perfectly cooked chicken, and flavorful rice and veggies… I was blown away. The other three tapas were also very good. The empanadas in particular had a lot of flavor, especially considering there was no meat inside.
Our server was great. We had a great conversation with him about traveling and the town of Zaandam. He told us about the revitalization of the area and the town’s characteristic «Zaandam Green» that is painted on traditional homes and buildings.
The restaurant does accept magnetic-​stripe credit cards. This is important because very few places in Amsterdam do.
We would LOVE to come back and dine at Que Pasa again!

Wir haben die Tapas-​Bar zufällig entdeckt, als wir abends noch was essen wollten. Das Essen war fantastisch, das lässt sich nicht anders sagen. Teilweise war es etwas intensiv gewürzt, aber alles in allem so lecker dass wir am nächsten Tag direkt wieder da waren.
Nur die Oliven haben mich enttäsucht, aber das ist Geschmackssache. Ausprobieren sollte man auf jeden Fall das Lamm (Nr 22), das war so zart und so lecker dass man sich allein davon satt essen könnte.
Die Preise liegen im mittleren Bereich mit 3−6EUR pro Portion. Mit 2 Portionen pro Person sind wir aber auch gut satt geworden.
Die Atmosphäre ist sehr gemütlich und der Service auch gut.
Die komplette Speisekarte findet sich auf der Webseite, unbedingt probieren sollte man auch die Nr.41!
