Feeling crabby? 5x Seafood take-aways

Alright, folks, the party is over. Carnival is a wrap. Traditionally, the fasting season starts now, marked by eating herring on Ash Wednesday. For everyone keeping the tradition alive or just craving some omega-3 fatty acids, here are our tips for getting your hands on a tasty fish!

SeaBas

Super fresh fish right in the center of town. At SeaBas on the Grote Berg, you know your red snapper was still swimming in the North Sea twenty-four hours earlier. Pop in for delicious kibbeling (fried fish) or a cone of calamari. This is also a great place for tasty poké bowls and ready-made paella.

Zeester

For delicious fish, fries, and salads, go to the Zeester on Kruisstraat. Order your favorite fish mix and sauce to taste, and enjoy at a great price.

The weekly market

Simple, delicious, and always a good time: grabbing fish at the weekly market is a win. Take Wednesday mornings, for example, when the Van Bakel fish stall is at the Woensel shopping center – a beloved staple in Eindhoven for five generations.   




































Chajiä

At Chajiä at Strijp-S, you'll surely catch a tasty fish. A casual (take-away) fish restaurant where the fish 'n chips, poké bowls, greek pitas, and sushi burritos are a must-try. Delicious veg options, too!

Eating herring on Ash Wednesday

Craving some herring and officially saying goodbye to Carnival? On Wednesday afternoon after Carnival, it’s tradition to enjoy a herring bite at Café Wilhelmina at Wilhelminaplein!
