Stikke Hezelstraat NIJMEGEN

Tip of Gaby and William, because:

...it’s the oldest shopping street in the Netherlands, an atmospheric street without any large and garish store chain signs. It has many original, authentic and cosy little shops – a great place to spend an afternoon browsing. For lunch we recommend Smaakrijk (www.smaakrijknijmegen.nl), a trendy lunch restaurant using traditional, organic and regional produce. The lovely smell of fresh coffee welcomes you as soon as you step into the restaurant. A 'Mirage', the F-16 among coffee-machines, shows itself off in the display case. And don’t forget to take a look at the beautiful old gables.
