What To Expect
Hoog Catharijne
We kick off the tour with a surprising story about transformation. Once known as a concrete jungle, this mall has become a symbol of Utrecht’s urban renewal. What used to be a cold, grey transit zone is now one of the most visited indoor shopping centers in the Netherlands – and a place where new ideas take root. We use this location to reflect on how spaces, like diets, can evolve. Just like cities grow greener and more people-friendly, so too can our food system. From here, we cycle into the city with fresh eyes – and a hungry stomach.
This cozy, colorful spot is where flavors from around the globe come together in one little kitchen. Run by a passionate entrepeneur who once started in India, Little World Kitchen shows that plant-based food can be soulful, spicy and deeply satisfying. Every dish is homemade, bursting with herbs and spices, and tells a personal story. You’ll taste a sample inspired by traditional recipes – reimagined without animal products, but full of heart. This is comfort food, powered by culture and compassion.

5.00You don’t have to be vegan or vegetarian to enjoy this food tour!!!! Patrick was a fabulous knowledgeable guide, and was so helpful getting us set up on our bikes. We were wary of tackling the Dutch bike lanes but Patrick kept us on quiet streets almost all of the way, crossing traffic only when necessary and as a group. We felt very safe! The food was excellent, MANY small bites so much we didn’t eat dinner afterwards! The places we visited had such wonderful stories and were so warm and welcoming. It was one of the best food tours we have ever taken and we are both omnivores!!! Also- the other guests on the tour were great and so much fun to get to know. We made some real friends along the way.
Good for food and biking
