The group gathers outside the bright orange FEBO window, the hum of tram bells and the glint of canal water framing the first bite. From that quick-serve Dutch institution the route slips into De Pijp, where cobbled streets and low canal bridges give way to the long, busy stalls of Albert Cuyp Market. The air carries frying oil, sweet caramel, and the occasional wood smoke from a family-run cart.
