I was 0, we went to the UK and to Switzerland.. I think my family would go to another European country every year, but never to another continent. I think I got to 15 different countries before I was 18 Of course most countries here are rather small so it's not a very big feat. It's like a Texan that goes to Arizona or Oklahoma. My parents were not rich at all , especially when we were a young family. Yet they still could go on holiday every year usually camping in tents.
I was a toddler when my parents took me and my siblings to a friends visit in Germany. I may have been abroad before that, but I have no memory of that.
American eggs are washed with warm water and a detergent thats why you need to store eggs in the fridge in the US. Dutch or European eggs are not being washed leaving a protective barrier on the shell which makes it possible to store them outside the fridge. Sometimes there is still a feather on the unwashed egg.
Actually not. These eggs come from the egg factory and they purposely add the odd feather to it to give you the impression that it has actually been laid 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The story behind the feathers on the eggs is easy. When eggs are laid there is natural thin protective layer on the surface. If you wash the eggs to remove things like small feathers you also remove that layer. Without that layer eggs are vulnerable to bacteria. That is why in the US eggs need to be refrigerated. European eggs you can keep at room temperature.
Offering coffee is considered the very minimum of hospitality here. Even my vet has a water cooler in his waiting room and a sign that says you can ask the assistant for coffee or tea. They will sometimes offer it without being asked. I suspect that it's a fairly cheap way for stores to keep you in there for a longer time. Or from going away if you feel the wait is too long. You'll stay there for at least as long as it takes you to finish that coffee.
@@Blackadder75 they got rid of it because a lot of older people would sit there all day together and drank coffee. It became their main activity of the day. I'm not joking!
Wherever I worked, if someone visits you offer them a cup of coffee or tea. Doesn't matter if its a customer or a mechanic or even just a friend or family😊
Dutch dinner time for most is around 1800/1900 but a lot wil eat later personally i like to have dinner around 20:00/21:00. But in southern Europe (italy,spain,france( they eat even later you wouldnt be able te eat at a restaurant before 18:00 sometimes not even before 19:00 and it wil just get busy around 21:00
As to the dutch families eating dinner later; its usually because one or both of the parents work 'till 1700 but value family dinnertime a lot. travel home is around 30-45 minutes, take 10-20 mins to relax, so they eat dinner between 1800 and 1830. If both parents work they still have to cook when they get home so you add on another 30 mins minimum, you get to 1900 for dinnertime.😉

One thing that always surprises me is more of an inverted surprise: It's when I go abroad and I see the amount of litter everywhere. You'll see car tires, trolleys or other random stuff just laying around everywhere. That's much less common here in The Netherlands, everything always looks relatively clean.
Historically, dinner in Dutch households was at 5 p.m. sharp, as families waited for dad to come home. Back then, moms were typically homemakers. But now, with most parents working and balancing childcare, dinner tends to be later, although families still highly value eating together-it’s seen as a sign of a healthy family dynamic. These days, it’s tougher to have kids ready at 5, and we’re fine with dining out a bit later, as family meals are important, even when eating out. For special occasions like anniversaries, parents might leave the kids with grandparents, but for regular outings, they’re usually part of the tradition too.
my grandma would always have dinner around 14:00. and just eat a sandwich in the evening. this was in a rural area in the south. so i guess you could say lunch and dinner were swapped
@@drJoep043 I grew up in Germany as a Dutch child. The Germans eat hot meals around noon and in the evening a sandwich. We did it the otherway around at home, but because of my German friends I often eat 2 times a day hot meals or 2 times a sandwich
We eat between 17:30 and 18:45 which is on the late side. When kids were younger we would eat at 17:30 and they would go to bed at 19:00 when visiting a restaurant we book a table at 18:00.
Oh man I am working in Noord Brabant this week and not only do I get coffee multiple times a day but they brought us warme worstenbroodjes every day as well. these things go a long way
Little tip: I wiggle every egg in the box before i buy them. If there is one that doesnt move its broken and stuck to the box. I'll check a new box and always have all my eggs fresh.
I never do that and I get a broken egg about once every TEN (10) years... I don't think it's a common occurrence. NB I do not eat that many eggs , so if you have a large family and eat a lot of eggs, maybe it's more common
Put an egg in water. When it lies flat at the bottom, it’s fresh. When the egg gets older, the smaller side starts to point upwards, but it’s still perfectly fine to eat. When it floats, get rid of it. This is because the eggshell becomes more poreus over time, and air gatheres inside the egg.
The bakery you pointed out across Jumbo is Oscar, and yes, it's a chain. Originated in IJmuiden I think, there are multiple stores in the region. In fact, there is another one down at the Grote Houtstraat, and today I saw that there will be one opened at the corner of de Grote Markt and the Grote Houtstraat. Where that little shoe maker shop was. And I have to say, their breads and pastries are sooooo good!
I am self employed now in the Netherlands and we been speaking a lot about subjects from your videos at the job. Very refreshing getting your perspective on things.
growing up with somewhat stricter parents, we also ate at 5 o'clock on the spot. unless my dad would come home a lil later, maybe 5:15pm most my friends in class would eat at the earliest 5:30 but mostly at 6PM but that was back when we trusted everyone and we had like cords sticking out from the door you could just walk in a place of someone you knew, and they pretty much just offered you to stay for dinner i think we just shifted it a bit later because everyone would be doing things in the evening and maybe it was just more convient to eat late together and as someone who eats a lot at 11PM, i do know it's not good for heath and rhythm. but i do feel like if you eat after 6, it's mostly us being lazy if anything
🥷🏼🥷🏼☕ yes! dinner is at 18-19h at our place nowadays. But when going out it's usually a weekendnight so 19-20h is early enough. And always brought the children. If you mix them in soon enough they learn to behave. And why have children to begin with if you don't want to spend time with them. OK we took some time off now and then, but they're 20-23 now and still join on our Holiday. We like it! Just came back from a trip to Dublin with my 20 y/o son. Awesome I was 16 when I took my moped all around The Netherlands with my friend, stayed at all the wildest camp-sites. When I was 17 I took the plane to my sister in Switzerland and have been travelling at least once per year internationally since then, ussually much more.
for traditional families (with kids) yes. Especially in the countryside. But single people or younger couples without kids often lost that tradition and eat when ever they feel like. my dinner time varies from 18:00-20:00 and in rare situations even later
When an egg leaves the chicken it's still moist and sometimes small feathers can get stuck to them as they dry. Sometimes there can be a bit of poop on them too. Comes out the same hole, right? Plus they don't get washed, so they don't have to be refrigerated to last up to weeks before they go off.
I think starting dinner is depending on you career or do you have kids. People with young kids are eating not to late, because the kids are back from school at 15:00u-15:30u. Couple hours later they are hungry. I don't have kids, but I am eating between 17:00u - 18:00u. Coolblue is my favorite store for electronic devices. There service is really good, they are nice and free coffee. 😁
I think the late dinner depends on the region. I'm from Limburg, and we'd eat 'dinner' at 16:00-17:00. However, once I moved away to the north, they eat dinner at 18:00 or even later. It was a big adjustment to make for sure!
I never noticed the north-south thing. For me 18.00h is the standard time for dinner. However I noticed in rural areas, especially on farms it is earlier, like 16.00h-17.00h ( I lived in several cities around the country, where it always was around six. But I have family on farms in De Achterhoek and east-Brabant and they ate earlier.)
I’m single, and I have dinner anytime between 17:45 and 20:00. Depends on how hungry I am, and if I perhaps have leftovers that are quick and easy. When I was still with my now ex, dinner was between 17:45 and 18:30.
I travelled first with my parents to Hungary to visit family there, when I was 2,5 years old. First time I travelled by myself (other than biking of course) by transit in the city I must have been about 8 years. And when I got 12, my friends and me bought a tienertour ticket (unlimited travel throughout the entire country for teens) and we crisscrossed the entire country by ourselves. Great memories from those days ... I was 16 when I first travelled abroad alone by train to Budapest. My favourite dinnertime is between 20:00 and 21:00, but that's not how I grew up. When I was still a little boy we had breakfast between 7:45 and 8:30, lunch between 12:30 and 13:30 (because of school times in those days) and dinner at about 17:30. As I am a mix of Hungarian and Dutch, my Hungarian genes slowly grew stronger and since I left my parents house to go study in Utrecht, I stick to regelli at 6:00 (breakfast), tízorai at 10:00 (10 o'clock meal, second breakfast🤣), ebéd between 12:00 and 13:00 (lunch), teás at 16:00 (tea meal) and vacsora between 20:00 and 21:00 (dinner). Tízorai and teás are usually cold and savoury and sweet respectively, the rest is savoury either cold or warm.
Nah man, normal dinner time is like 5 o'clock (17:00u) or 18:00u at the latest. Probably also depends if you have a stay at home mom or if both parents have a job. 9:40 I only see one cop (the one with the dark jacket and the yellow stripe. The other ones with the yellow vests are handhaving. They don't carry guns, maybe pepperspray, a baton and handcuffs) Might be they were doing some sort of check like bicycles riding in a pedestrian zone or something like that. That one cop could have been the "wijkagent"
Someone offers you a coffee.....you stuck there for at least 10 min checking merchendise and you feel obligated to at least buy something.......best 30ct investment ever. Never underestimate Dutch salesmanship.
@@ItzSKYVlogs When this gesture is so deeply rooted in our culture as a sign off hospitality, why not take advantage of that and use it as a smart tactic to hold customers as long as possible in your store. The longer they stay, the more you sell.Trading is in our blood!
When I was young (a long time ago) we had diner at about 6, but now ... because my wife works till 5:30 she's home at about 6 or quarter past, so we have diner at about 6:30 or 7. In the weekend it may be a earlier.
We eat at 18:00 because we have a child but otherwise it can get very late before we eat…like 20:00/21:00. And anyone coming at our place gets something to drink, from guests to some-one who comes to fix something. I drew the line at the postman.
Oh yea there are feathers on the eggs, but not all the time, it's because most people throw away the egg shell anyway so is it a problem if it isn't perfectly clean? Also you get offered coffee? What places do you go? I never get that (except that one dude at mcdonalds but there I have to pay for it, I don't like it when he does the orders) About dinner, some people do it really late (I know Bram's family used to do it like at 20:00 but I think Bram stopped doing that since my sister works early) but when I say that I'll be on time for dinner at home, that generally means that I get home between 18:00 and 18:30 (I never know the exact time I get home because rush hour) BTW we might have cought that rain in Haarlem as well while we were making the transfer mondayevening, did I guess correct?
If somebody is working at your house its common to ask if they want a coffe or something. Had a collegue who was working and the client made coffee for herself and was constantly looking over his shoulder. He left.😂 that was disrespectful AF of her.
@@ItzSKYVlogsto really integrate into Dutch culture offer them koffie. Many will refuse anyway if it is a short job. They are getting Coffee overdose otherwise.
@@ItzSKYVlogsthat's quite normal. You're stuck there anyway, why not make it a bit nicer while you're there? I would do the same or heck even pay for a coffee if we're both doing the same haha
It's so much fun to follow your channel! And the funny thing is: I walk the same streets you are walking from Raaks to Haarlem Station (I live in Zandvoort). Would be awesome to bump into you some day, you never know!
Double ninja coffee? Anyway: what ages are your kids? When my daughter was younger she used to go to bed a lot earlier than now. We normally dinner at about 18:30 or 19:00, if we go out to eat then maybe a bit later. I believe the vast majority of Dutch will eat at around 18hrs or so
Yoooh Sky, love your content. Big feel good! I'm dutch, love how you praise our country, awsome enthusiastic. You know what I mis, the subculture in the province of the Netherlands.

Hope you read this, nothing obligated. Love your content. Mutch love❤❤Bert
Here in Colorado there are a few places that offer your a drink. My barber: Chad & Company always offers me a drink, so it does happens, it's just rare.
I can elaborate on the Coffee thing. I'm a truckdriver and i get offered a cup of coffee at a lot of places where i deliver. In Belgium however it's a completely diffrent story however.. I've been delivering there for about 10 years. The only time i was offered a cup of coffee was because it was a Dutchman living in Belgium. Oh by the way. Last week i saw a whole pallet with boxes of skittles. They are in the country just so you know
About the coffee. I think it because of the saying "You catch more flies with honey."🤔 About the dinner times. It depends on if you live in a city or in a village. In a village people often have dinner around 16.30 - 17.00. 17.30 at the latest. Especially the farmers. Cause they also have to get up and start working really early in the morning. I believe they get up around 4.00 and they usually have a warm meal for lunch around 12.30 and then they have bread for "dinner" around 16.30.
Feathers on a chicken egg. You know a chicken has feathers right. The eggs arent comming from a featherless animal😂 Kids being out late, maybe because they have autumn holiday and can stay up a bit later then on school days.
@@ItzSKYVlogs hahahaaaa yeah i read that comment. And indeed thats a joke sky hahaha. He is being sarcastic. It just shows you the egg is coming from a chickenfarm. I must say im suprised you dont see the feathers in america. I guess in the US they wash the eggs in some forbidden fluid thats not allowed in Europe haha. Like you told about how the bread stays good for a month🤣
The kids, well if you can't get a baby-sit, and on speecial occasions you take them along, ...dinner time is 18:00h or 17:30h traditionally, mid day meal around 12:30 - 13:00h... breakfast around 07:30h... 08:30h... But now a days a lot of people have jobs with weird hours... Tea time around 16:00h...coffee break around 11:00h... Cappuccino? YUCK. That usually tastes like ashes. I want real coffee, with Friesche Vlag coffee-milk and sugar...
🥷🏼🥷🏼☕ First time besides Germany, was when I was 10 years old to Austria. And my first time alone was when I was 16 to Paris with a friend. Was called by the front desk of the hotel for several times if the guide was with me, because I had a room by myself. 😮 That was back in 1980.
I've grown up with that if there are guests, you always need to offer some drinks, coffee/tea is the most common things as it cost the least time to prepare/money. And clearly this basic thing has gone to everywhere.So it's a basic gesture of hospitality everywhere you go. Most of the time it's also to keep you busy while you need to wait.
It's sort of elementary Dutch hospitality. However, to be honest in places like Italy and Spain they would consider it normal to offer guests at your house food as well, no matter the time. They consider us cold. It's all a matter of culture.
Best tip for a mini holiday.. Go 2 fays for the Efteling in Brabant.. Book the hotel.. You your wife and kids will never forget the magical feeling Efteling is magic for all ages Go by train..litle bit bus... and direct in the forrest entrance of the park
A lot of small shops in Korea will offer coffee or some other drink to customers and people waiting for them, though I don't think it happens as often today as it used to. I've been in boutique clothing shops, telecom agents, perfume shops, all kinds of places, and been offered a drink while waiting for my wife.
Dutch farmers and many Dutch families with kids eat dinner early 17:00 or 17:30 is quite normal. younger people without kids and higher educated people often eat dinner later at 19:00 or later. But that is nothing like out Southern European brethren... People around the mediterranean sea often eat at 20:00 or even later , with the Spanish being the latest of them all.
I think that most people in the Netherlands eat between 17:00 and 19:00 at home. It depends on work, sports etc. We, for example, eat twice a week around 17:00 because of soccer training. You can't run on a full stomach 😅
4:09 When I was young one of my friends had to be home at 17.00 and dinner would be served at 17.00 every day. Both my parents worked so our dinner time was flexible. Now I live on my own and dinner is somewhere between 18.00 and 20.30. If little kids nap in the afternoon and their regular schedule is with a later dinner what is the issue. My point of reference is always the south of Europe where dinner starts at 21.00 and ends at maybe 23.00, but they have a siesta in the middle of the day.
The 17.30 eating time, or 18.00, is quite normal for me and a lot of people at home. The later or earlier diner times is because people try to escape the busy period and thus order not at the regular time we're all used to. Also, dining is quite a time consuming thing, not a minute thing. So people tend to go later because they have more time then.
Was this the video where I heard you say that the Dutch children you know eat and go to bed late? I so agree with you. Imo it isn't healthy. When my children were young we ate at 17.30hrs and they would be in bed before 19.00hrs. Sometimes they'd already fall asleep with their face on their plate or somewhere in a corner on the floor😂. I remember when my son was 7 he was in bed at 8 o'clock.
There was a time when Dutch people expected you to leave or ask you to leave when it was dinnertime (around 5:30). So be glad when Dutch people ask you to stay for diner. I think that mentality changed when more cultures came to the Netherlands who expected you to stay for diner. My guess is that Dutch people adapted that hospitality. I think a lot of Dutch people still eat at 5:30 but there is definitely a shift to eating later.
Depends on travel/working time of the family members. When my sister started to work in a bakery shop, diner shifted to 18:30 so we could still be all together.
Heck, if I have people over for a service I offer them coffee. Like, Coolblue brought my dryer yesterday and I offered them coffee. Isn’t that just hospitable? :)
I went with some representatives of an apartment block to a lawyer to learn about our rights in a housing dispute. And yes, they offered us coffee as well. But now the embarrassing truth came out; the coffee was charged on our legal bill. The bastards!
@@ItzSKYVlogs You're diving deep into the dark conspiracies us Dutch are trying to hide from the world. Keep looking over your shoulders with that camera mate. ❤😁
In my experience Dutch people eat somewhere between 17.30 and 18.30. A lot of places offer some coffee, that's true - happened to me in a glasses story the other day - but I think it's a recent thing? Kids up late outside was also frowned upon when I was young. Honestly, in The Netherlands I think it's more common among immigrant communities to take kids out late.
When i was a kid still living with my patents dinner time was always at 6pm. After that we watched a program on tv named tiktak and Sesamstraat and then off to bed. When i got older the dinner time stayed, my mom still Always eat at 6pm.
Re: travel - you can be 100 miles away, in Europe that's another country; in US, it's another state, Just a matter of distance. Borders are a human limitation, but geography doesn't know about them. The US could be 50 different countries OR just one. Eating in the south of Europe, much later (depends on light, temperature, siesta, etc.)
There is a café in my neighborhoud in Den Haag called "CoffeeCats". They serve coffee and have cats running around. Just brilliant. What more do you need in life? 😊 Therre's a place like that in Leiden too and probably in other cities as well.
Also at the hospital, in the waiting area's there are hospital workers walking around with a cart. And they would ask all the people in the waiting room if we would have a cup of coffee or tea. Never ever would I see this in China if I visit the hospital there. 😅
Lol😂, no coffee at Apple Store because of the electronics 😂, they do offer free classes though, on how to use IPad or iPhone. And yes, there are people here who eat later, around 7pm, but I prefer 5:30 pm
By the way Revering to A video from last week i whas at the movie theater Cineworld in Beverwijk guess what. Th had a bag of SKITTLES so the still sel them here in the Netherlands you only need to look for theme maybe also candy shops like Jamin
There's a big difference is dinner time for the Dutch. I think the oldschool Dutch start dinner between 17.00 and 18.00. But thats when most of the people worked from 06.00 till 16.00. Nowadays a lot of people work in the office, and a lot of families have two parents working. So for them, dinner gets pushed back. The new generation of parents eat dinner after 18.00 or even after 19.00.
Dinner around 17-17.30. But in the dark period.. When summer time rhen later. But in general the Dutch are having dinner at 18.00. The whole family around the table.
Bed time depends on when kids get up and need to sleep. Dinner time depends on when you get home. Sometimes that means cooking starts at 18.15 these days, and you better be in bed by 19.30!
Hey question! What age were you when you first traveled?
I was 1, first time vacation to Ibiza 😊
I went on my own to the States when I was sixteen. Except for being robbed at knifepoint of my watch in Buffalo, it was a great experience!
Not counting Belgium or Germany, i think i was 12 when we went to Spain for the first time. First "solo" travel was at 14 or so via a school program.
I was 0, we went to the UK and to Switzerland.. I think my family would go to another European country every year, but never to another continent.
I think I got to 15 different countries before I was 18
Of course most countries here are rather small so it's not a very big feat. It's like a Texan that goes to Arizona or Oklahoma.
My parents were not rich at all , especially when we were a young family. Yet they still could go on holiday every year usually camping in tents.
I was a toddler when my parents took me and my siblings to a friends visit in Germany. I may have been abroad before that, but I have no memory of that.
In the south (Spain, France, Italy) it's pretty normal to have dinner at 9 or 10pm. We're pretty early in the Netherlands.
American eggs are washed with warm water and a detergent thats why you need to store eggs in the fridge in the US. Dutch or European eggs are not being washed leaving a protective barrier on the shell which makes it possible to store them outside the fridge. Sometimes there is still a feather on the unwashed egg.
Oooh that’s very interesting.
Thanks for explaining.
There’s UA-cam content about these differences nowadays, don’t remember where I learned this fact though…
Yep, learned that too from this youtube channel: ua-cam.com/video/neJGE3Fy3PE/v-deo.htmlsi=nmDjCXJ28UP4uxXU
Actually not. These eggs come from the egg factory and they purposely add the odd feather to it to give you the impression that it has actually been laid 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The story behind the feathers on the eggs is easy.
When eggs are laid there is natural thin protective layer on the surface. If you wash the eggs to remove things like small feathers you also remove that layer. Without that layer eggs are vulnerable to bacteria. That is why in the US eggs need to be refrigerated. European eggs you can keep at room temperature.
Some egg producers are even known to put a feather on at least one egg in the box because somehow it makes the eggs look more fresh from the farm.
Yea I really like the feathers on the eggs to be honest! We even have a game for it! Hahaha

You even can get free coffee at Supermarkets (not all, but a lot though)
I think that trend is on the decline again, around here they all had it and they all got rid of it again... Even the largest stores of the big chains.

I do really like that a lot of places do tho.
And if someone is coming to your house to fix something, you offer something to drink
Dutch dinner time for most is around 1800/1900 but a lot wil eat later personally i like to have dinner around 20:00/21:00. But in southern Europe (italy,spain,france( they eat even later you wouldnt be able te eat at a restaurant before 18:00 sometimes not even before 19:00 and it wil just get busy around 21:00
As to the dutch families eating dinner later; its usually because one or both of the parents work 'till 1700 but value family dinnertime a lot.
travel home is around 30-45 minutes, take 10-20 mins to relax, so they eat dinner between 1800 and 1830. If both parents work they still have to cook when they get home so you add on another 30 mins minimum, you get to 1900 for dinnertime.😉
Thanks for explaining! I’m Dutch, and didn’t know dinner time shifted. And was wondering why.

@@patrickdevaan5021 ooh that’s good to know!
@@jessy90x niiiceee!! I still haven’t found them! Butttt a bunch of people sent me pics on Instagram!!! 😂
One thing that always surprises me is more of an inverted surprise: It's when I go abroad and I see the amount of litter everywhere. You'll see car tires, trolleys or other random stuff just laying around everywhere. That's much less common here in The Netherlands, everything always looks relatively clean.
Historically, dinner in Dutch households was at 5 p.m. sharp, as families waited for dad to come home. Back then, moms were typically homemakers. But now, with most parents working and balancing childcare, dinner tends to be later, although families still highly value eating together-it’s seen as a sign of a healthy family dynamic. These days, it’s tougher to have kids ready at 5, and we’re fine with dining out a bit later, as family meals are important, even when eating out. For special occasions like anniversaries, parents might leave the kids with grandparents, but for regular outings, they’re usually part of the tradition too.
Nah 17:30
my grandma would always have dinner around 14:00. and just eat a sandwich in the evening. this was in a rural area in the south. so i guess you could say lunch and dinner were swapped
@@drJoep043 I grew up in Germany as a Dutch child. The Germans eat hot meals around noon and in the evening a sandwich. We did it the otherway around at home, but because of my German friends I often eat 2 times a day hot meals or 2 times a sandwich
We eat between 17:30 and 18:45 which is on the late side. When kids were younger we would eat at 17:30 and they would go to bed at 19:00 when visiting a restaurant we book a table at 18:00.
There is a lady in the egg-factory glue-ing the feathers on.
Waaaaiiiitttt whaaaaattt!!! Really!!!!
Dude is this true!!!???
Please don’t break my heart!
@@ItzSKYVlogs hahahaa dutch sarcasm🤣
@@ItzSKYVlogs Of course not, silly, Dutch sense of humor is always a bit on the edge.
Oh man I am working in Noord Brabant this week and not only do I get coffee multiple times a day but they brought us warme worstenbroodjes every day as well. these things go a long way
I was born and grew up in the Netherlands. I really appreciate the scenery you are shooting.
Little tip: I wiggle every egg in the box before i buy them.
If there is one that doesnt move its broken and stuck to the box.
I'll check a new box and always have all my eggs fresh.
@@lindafrugtedevries731 oooh that’s a great tip Linda!
@@lindafrugtedevries731 thanks so much for the advice!
I never do that and I get a broken egg about once every TEN (10) years... I don't think it's a common occurrence.
NB I do not eat that many eggs , so if you have a large family and eat a lot of eggs, maybe it's more common
Put an egg in water. When it lies flat at the bottom, it’s fresh. When the egg gets older, the smaller side starts to point upwards, but it’s still perfectly fine to eat. When it floats, get rid of it. This is because the eggshell becomes more poreus over time, and air gatheres inside the egg.
@@deetgeluid I often eat eggs that are at least 2 weeks over the stamped date here, because I always forget I have them.
The bakery you pointed out across Jumbo is Oscar, and yes, it's a chain. Originated in IJmuiden I think, there are multiple stores in the region. In fact, there is another one down at the Grote Houtstraat, and today I saw that there will be one opened at the corner of de Grote Markt and the Grote Houtstraat. Where that little shoe maker shop was. And I have to say, their breads and pastries are sooooo good!
Bedankt
Wow thank you!!! 🙏
I am self employed now in the Netherlands and we been speaking a lot about subjects from your videos at the job. Very refreshing getting your perspective on things.
growing up with somewhat stricter parents, we also ate at 5 o'clock on the spot.
unless my dad would come home a lil later, maybe 5:15pm
most my friends in class would eat at the earliest 5:30 but mostly at 6PM
but that was back when we trusted everyone and we had like cords sticking out from the door
you could just walk in a place of someone you knew, and they pretty much just offered you to stay for dinner
i think we just shifted it a bit later because everyone would be doing things in the evening
and maybe it was just more convient to eat late together
and as someone who eats a lot at 11PM, i do know it's not good for heath and rhythm.
but i do feel like if you eat after 6, it's mostly us being lazy if anything
🥷🏼🥷🏼☕ yes! dinner is at 18-19h at our place nowadays. But when going out it's usually a weekendnight so 19-20h is early enough. And always brought the children. If you mix them in soon enough they learn to behave. And why have children to begin with if you don't want to spend time with them. OK we took some time off now and then, but they're 20-23 now and still join on our Holiday. We like it! Just came back from a trip to Dublin with my 20 y/o son. Awesome
I was 16 when I took my moped all around The Netherlands with my friend, stayed at all the wildest camp-sites. When I was 17 I took the plane to my sister in Switzerland and have been travelling at least once per year internationally since then, ussually much more.
Yea 5:30 pm is the normal time for diner
This is the way
In my experience it depends often on the type of job you have. Bouwvakkers often eat early because they have to start the day early.
hungry at 2pm dinner at 5pm for the real dutch
for traditional families (with kids) yes. Especially in the countryside. But single people or younger couples without kids often lost that tradition and eat when ever they feel like. my dinner time varies from 18:00-20:00 and in rare situations even later
When an egg leaves the chicken it's still moist and sometimes small feathers can get stuck to them as they dry. Sometimes there can be a bit of poop on them too. Comes out the same hole, right? Plus they don't get washed, so they don't have to be refrigerated to last up to weeks before they go off.
We sit at the table (almost) every evening with the family and eat together. We talk through the day, chat and laugh together, which is wonderful!
I think starting dinner is depending on you career or do you have kids. People with young kids are eating not to late, because the kids are back from school at 15:00u-15:30u. Couple hours later they are hungry. I don't have kids, but I am eating between 17:00u - 18:00u.
Coolblue is my favorite store for electronic devices. There service is really good, they are nice and free coffee. 😁
I dont know about others but i live in a small neighbourhood with mostly farmers and we eag at around 4:30/5:00pm
I think the late dinner depends on the region. I'm from Limburg, and we'd eat 'dinner' at 16:00-17:00. However, once I moved away to the north, they eat dinner at 18:00 or even later. It was a big adjustment to make for sure!
I'm from Limburg too, I never have diner before 19.00. Older generations though used to have diner between 16.00-17.00, I do remember that 😅
I never noticed the north-south thing. For me 18.00h is the standard time for dinner. However I noticed in rural areas, especially on farms it is earlier, like 16.00h-17.00h ( I lived in several cities around the country, where it always was around six. But I have family on farms in De Achterhoek and east-Brabant and they ate earlier.)
I’m single, and I have dinner anytime between 17:45 and 20:00. Depends on how hungry I am, and if I perhaps have leftovers that are quick and easy.
When I was still with my now ex, dinner was between 17:45 and 18:30.
The healthiest way to eat. When your hungry.❤
🥷🥷☕ I love those rainy night shots. Somehow when filming in the dark, rainy always looks better than dry.
Ayyyyeew thanks so much for watching til the end!
Also I agree! The rain just makes it so nice at night!
I travelled first with my parents to Hungary to visit family there, when I was 2,5 years old. First time I travelled by myself (other than biking of course) by transit in the city I must have been about 8 years. And when I got 12, my friends and me bought a tienertour ticket (unlimited travel throughout the entire country for teens) and we crisscrossed the entire country by ourselves. Great memories from those days ... I was 16 when I first travelled abroad alone by train to Budapest.
My favourite dinnertime is between 20:00 and 21:00, but that's not how I grew up. When I was still a little boy we had breakfast between 7:45 and 8:30, lunch between 12:30 and 13:30 (because of school times in those days) and dinner at about 17:30. As I am a mix of Hungarian and Dutch, my Hungarian genes slowly grew stronger and since I left my parents house to go study in Utrecht, I stick to regelli at 6:00 (breakfast), tízorai at 10:00 (10 o'clock meal, second breakfast🤣), ebéd between 12:00 and 13:00 (lunch), teás at 16:00 (tea meal) and vacsora between 20:00 and 21:00 (dinner). Tízorai and teás are usually cold and savoury and sweet respectively, the rest is savoury either cold or warm.
Nah man, normal dinner time is like 5 o'clock (17:00u) or 18:00u at the latest. Probably also depends if you have a stay at home mom or if both parents have a job.
9:40 I only see one cop (the one with the dark jacket and the yellow stripe. The other ones with the yellow vests are handhaving. They don't carry guns, maybe pepperspray, a baton and handcuffs)
Might be they were doing some sort of check like bicycles riding in a pedestrian zone or something like that. That one cop could have been the "wijkagent"
17:30 tot 18:30 normally. In a restaurant maybe a bit later 18:00-19:30
Someone offers you a coffee.....you stuck there for at least 10 min checking merchendise and you feel obligated to at least buy something.......best 30ct investment ever. Never underestimate Dutch salesmanship.
@@A.Kanters oh but not at gymnastics.. I mean my son’s class is already an hour. I’m waiting anything 😂
@@A.Kanters I’ll definitely keep this in mind for the other places tho ;)
Its definitely a sales tactic. Just like bringing a pack of stroopwafels to meetings to sweeten people up.
On that note it is also just to have a good time for everyone involved
@@ItzSKYVlogs When this gesture is so deeply rooted in our culture as a sign off hospitality, why not take advantage of that and use it as a smart tactic to hold customers as long as possible in your store. The longer they stay, the more you sell.Trading is in our blood!
When I was young (a long time ago) we had diner at about 6, but now ... because my wife works till 5:30 she's home at about 6 or quarter past, so we have diner at about 6:30 or 7. In the weekend it may be a earlier.
On week days we usually eat when i get home from work, after 5:15. In the weekend it's often later.
We eat at 18:00 because we have a child but otherwise it can get very late before we eat…like 20:00/21:00.
And anyone coming at our place gets something to drink, from guests to some-one who comes to fix something.
I drew the line at the postman.
As a kid, we ate at 6 PM; however, when going out it often is a couple of hours later than 6PM.
Oh yea there are feathers on the eggs, but not all the time, it's because most people throw away the egg shell anyway so is it a problem if it isn't perfectly clean?
Also you get offered coffee? What places do you go? I never get that (except that one dude at mcdonalds but there I have to pay for it, I don't like it when he does the orders)
About dinner, some people do it really late (I know Bram's family used to do it like at 20:00 but I think Bram stopped doing that since my sister works early) but when I say that I'll be on time for dinner at home, that generally means that I get home between 18:00 and 18:30 (I never know the exact time I get home because rush hour)
BTW we might have cought that rain in Haarlem as well while we were making the transfer mondayevening, did I guess correct?
4:49 hallelujah, gd old fashioned, last century parenting. Much fatherly love bro.

If somebody is working at your house its common to ask if they want a coffe or something. Had a collegue who was working and the client made coffee for herself and was constantly looking over his shoulder. He left.😂 that was disrespectful AF of her.
Ooh really! Hahahah I also try to offer and water for people working on the house
I’m just shocked that a gymnastic teachers will ask the parents if we want a coffee or tea.
@@ItzSKYVlogsto really integrate into Dutch culture offer them koffie. Many will refuse anyway if it is a short job. They are getting Coffee overdose otherwise.
@@ItzSKYVlogsthat's quite normal. You're stuck there anyway, why not make it a bit nicer while you're there? I would do the same or heck even pay for a coffee if we're both doing the same haha
It's so much fun to follow your channel! And the funny thing is: I walk the same streets you are walking from Raaks to Haarlem Station (I live in Zandvoort). Would be awesome to bump into you some day, you never know!
Double ninja coffee? Anyway: what ages are your kids? When my daughter was younger she used to go to bed a lot earlier than now. We normally dinner at about 18:30 or 19:00, if we go out to eat then maybe a bit later. I believe the vast majority of Dutch will eat at around 18hrs or so
Yoooh Sky, love your content. Big feel good! I'm dutch, love how you praise our country, awsome enthusiastic. You know what I mis, the subculture in the province of the Netherlands. I'm from Brabant, we got carnaval. In the east and north they also got awsome subculture events and habits. This all makes the Netherlands way more interesting and lovable. Hope you read this, nothing obligated. Love your content. Mutch love❤❤Bert
Dinner time is more a practical issue I eat 17:30 with my kids. Maybe 18:00 if I am late out of work
Here in Colorado there are a few places that offer your a drink.
My barber: Chad & Company always offers me a drink, so it does happens, it's just rare.
I can elaborate on the Coffee thing. I'm a truckdriver and i get offered a cup of coffee at a lot of places where i deliver. In Belgium however it's a completely diffrent story however.. I've been delivering there for about 10 years. The only time i was offered a cup of coffee was because it was a Dutchman living in Belgium.
Oh by the way. Last week i saw a whole pallet with boxes of skittles. They are in the country just so you know
18:00 sharp on the minute. Dinner time.
Oooh that’s not that late. Maybe my friends just eat late.
I’m not joking my friends want us to come over and have dinner at 7 lol 😂
@@ItzSKYVlogs that's quite normal nowadays but I grew up with food on the table at 18:00 sharp.
About the little rabit you saw in your last video, I think that was Fluffy, he escaped from our garden while I was cleaning his cage 😂
My Friend, I found them!!!! Them Skittles!!! at the supermarket the DIRK, they are an action artikel this week
About the coffee. I think it because of the saying "You catch more flies with honey."🤔
About the dinner times. It depends on if you live in a city or in a village. In a village people often have dinner around 16.30 - 17.00. 17.30 at the latest. Especially the farmers. Cause they also have to get up and start working really early in the morning. I believe they get up around 4.00 and they usually have a warm meal for lunch around 12.30 and then they have bread for "dinner" around 16.30.
Feathers on a chicken egg. You know a chicken has feathers right. The eggs arent comming from a featherless animal😂
Kids being out late, maybe because they have autumn holiday and can stay up a bit later then on school days.
Someone just said that.. there a person who puts the feathers on the eggs! 😢
Please say this isn’t true
I’ve grown to love the feathers and even play a game with the kids
@@ItzSKYVlogs hahahaaaa yeah i read that comment. And indeed thats a joke sky hahaha. He is being sarcastic. It just shows you the egg is coming from a chickenfarm. I must say im suprised you dont see the feathers in america. I guess in the US they wash the eggs in some forbidden fluid thats not allowed in Europe haha. Like you told about how the bread stays good for a month🤣
@@ItzSKYVlogs no worry theres no person putting feathers on a egg it wouldnt make any profit so nothing to worry about haha
The kids, well if you can't get a baby-sit, and on speecial occasions you take them along, ...dinner time is 18:00h or 17:30h traditionally, mid day meal around 12:30 - 13:00h... breakfast around 07:30h... 08:30h... But now a days a lot of people have jobs with weird hours... Tea time around 16:00h...coffee break around 11:00h... Cappuccino? YUCK. That usually tastes like ashes. I want real coffee, with Friesche Vlag coffee-milk and sugar...
Ever heard of Boom Chicago in Amsterdam? You might make a good stand-upper!
It's not typical dutch to eat late. We ate at 17:00. Most small kids go to bed early, in the weekends it may be a bit later.
🥷🏼🥷🏼☕ First time besides Germany, was when I was 10 years old to Austria. And my first time alone was when I was 16 to Paris with a friend. Was called by the front desk of the hotel for several times if the guide was with me, because I had a room by myself. 😮 That was back in 1980.
I've grown up with that if there are guests, you always need to offer some drinks, coffee/tea is the most common things as it cost the least time to prepare/money. And clearly this basic thing has gone to everywhere.So it's a basic gesture of hospitality everywhere you go. Most of the time it's also to keep you busy while you need to wait.
It's sort of elementary Dutch hospitality. However, to be honest in places like Italy and Spain they would consider it normal to offer guests at your house food as well, no matter the time. They consider us cold. It's all a matter of culture.
It varies sometimes (and yes i am Dutch) i eat dinner at 5PM normally but lately i have been hungry sooner so sometimes i eat at 3-4PM
Best tip for a mini holiday..
Go 2 fays for the Efteling in Brabant..
Book the hotel..
You your wife and kids will never forget the magical feeling
Efteling is magic for all ages
Go by train..litle bit bus... and direct in the forrest entrance of the park
Are you enjoying your Canon R5 2 over your Sony gear
At home I eat mostly at 18.00 but if I book a table at a restaurant I like to book at 19.00.
I think it's depents on the person/what you're used to
A lot of small shops in Korea will offer coffee or some other drink to customers and people waiting for them, though I don't think it happens as often today as it used to. I've been in boutique clothing shops, telecom agents, perfume shops, all kinds of places, and been offered a drink while waiting for my wife.
Dutch farmers and many Dutch families with kids eat dinner early 17:00 or 17:30 is quite normal.
younger people without kids and higher educated people often eat dinner later at 19:00 or later. But that is nothing like out Southern European brethren... People around the mediterranean sea often eat at 20:00 or even later , with the Spanish being the latest of them all.
I think that most people in the Netherlands eat between 17:00 and 19:00 at home. It depends on work, sports etc. We, for example, eat twice a week around 17:00 because of soccer training. You can't run on a full stomach 😅
4:09 When I was young one of my friends had to be home at 17.00 and dinner would be served at 17.00 every day. Both my parents worked so our dinner time was flexible. Now I live on my own and dinner is somewhere between 18.00 and 20.30. If little kids nap in the afternoon and their regular schedule is with a later dinner what is the issue. My point of reference is always the south of Europe where dinner starts at 21.00 and ends at maybe 23.00, but they have a siesta in the middle of the day.

@@ItzSKYVlogs It's always amazing to see how you balance everything. Man, such an inspiration as always! Keep it up!
The 17.30 eating time, or 18.00, is quite normal for me and a lot of people at home. The later or earlier diner times is because people try to escape the busy period and thus order not at the regular time we're all used to. Also, dining is quite a time consuming thing, not a minute thing. So people tend to go later because they have more time then.
I would love to have that putting feathers on eggs job
Was this the video where I heard you say that the Dutch children you know eat and go to bed late? I so agree with you. Imo it isn't healthy. When my children were young we ate at 17.30hrs and they would be in bed before 19.00hrs. Sometimes they'd already fall asleep with their face on their plate or somewhere in a corner on the floor😂. I remember when my son was 7 he was in bed at 8 o'clock.
There was a time when Dutch people expected you to leave or ask you to leave when it was dinnertime (around 5:30). So be glad when Dutch people ask you to stay for diner.
I think that mentality changed when more cultures came to the Netherlands who expected you to stay for diner. My guess is that Dutch people adapted that hospitality. I think a lot of Dutch people still eat at 5:30 but there is definitely a shift to eating later.
Usual diner time at home is around 5/5:30pm but going out for diner its okay if its later but i think most dutch homes diner at 5/6pm ish
Depends on travel/working time of the family members.
When my sister started to work in a bakery shop, diner shifted to 18:30 so we could still be all together.
Heck, if I have people over for a service I offer them coffee. Like, Coolblue brought my dryer yesterday and I offered them coffee. Isn’t that just hospitable? :)
I went with some representatives of an apartment block to a lawyer to learn about our rights in a housing dispute. And yes, they offered us coffee as well.
But now the embarrassing truth came out; the coffee was charged on our legal bill. The bastards!

In my experience Dutch people eat somewhere between 17.30 and 18.30. A lot of places offer some coffee, that's true - happened to me in a glasses story the other day - but I think it's a recent thing? Kids up late outside was also frowned upon when I was young. Honestly, in The Netherlands I think it's more common among immigrant communities to take kids out late.
There is a feather in every egg box. This is placed for us consumers so we feel good about that it’s a natural product.
When i was a kid still living with my patents dinner time was always at 6pm. After that we watched a program on tv named tiktak and Sesamstraat and then off to bed.
When i got older the dinner time stayed, my mom still Always eat at 6pm.
Re: travel - you can be 100 miles away, in Europe that's another country; in US, it's another state, Just a matter of distance. Borders are a human limitation, but geography doesn't know about them. The US could be 50 different countries OR just one.
Eating in the south of Europe, much later (depends on light, temperature, siesta, etc.)
I eat at 17:30 or 18:00. Some Dutch people eat a lot later.
You should go to Breukelen, in New York you would say Brooklyn. You live in Haarlem.
I had a couple albums on my FB where i had cats of Malta, cats of Morocco, Romania, Canaria. Guess I need to come to the Netherlands. Coffee and cats.

i whas at the movie theater Cineworld in Beverwijk guess what. Th had a bag of SKITTLES so the still sel them here in the Netherlands you only need to look for theme maybe also candy shops like Jamin
There's a big difference is dinner time for the Dutch. I think the oldschool Dutch start dinner between 17.00 and 18.00. But thats when most of the people worked from 06.00 till 16.00. Nowadays a lot of people work in the office, and a lot of families have two parents working. So for them, dinner gets pushed back. The new generation of parents eat dinner after 18.00 or even after 19.00.
I lot of people work until 17:30 or 18:00 these days. Add time for commuting and cooking. Sometimes u're lucky to eat at 7
@@alteregotje2491 Exactly
Having Feathers on your eggs is for a reason. It means their fresh😉
Dinner around 17-17.30. But in the dark period.. When summer time rhen later. But in general the Dutch are having dinner at 18.00. The whole family around the table.
