Only in the last few years, perhaps because Seinfeld is still showing here, has the concept of speedy soup purveyors hit Amsterdam. "Soup Etc." leads the pack by being particularly speedy (at least between 10 and 7:30 daily), as well as health conscious. Four soups are available daily, served with chunky slices of whole-grain breads, and the menu also offers salads and exotic fruit juices imported from Brazil. Once you're fortified, you can rush back to searching for bargains at the Waterlooplein flea market or window-shopping for arts and antiques around its second, Museum District location.
