We recently visited Belly of the Beast, a new cocktail bar located on the Singel in Amsterdam. Founded by Tess Posthumus, bartender and owner of Flying Dutchmen Cocktails & Dutch Courage, and Joeri Salet, owner of Supper and Bar Rouge. As soon as we stepped inside, it felt like we were entering a mysterious ship. In addition to the decor, the cocktails and bites also fit in perfectly with the undersea theme of Belly of the Beast. We will tell you more regarding it!

Undersea theme
Various selection of cocktails
Belly of the Beast offers an extensive range of cocktails & bites, of which we tried a selection. The cocktails were expertly made in the open bar by the cocktail shakers, which is very nice to see. We chose “Kraken’s Elixir”, which was nice and spicy with St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur and a touch of London Essence White Peach & Jasmine Soda. We also chose “Siren’s call” with Koch Elemental Mezcal, peach aperitif and hints of lemon and vanilla. Our ultimate favorite was the “Submerged Aye-Aye” with Hendrick’s Gin, Bandung Pandan Liqueur, herbs, lemon and a foam layer – super tasty! Each cocktail comes in a unique glass with beautiful decoration that once more ties in with the undersea theme of Belly of the Beast.

Tasty matching bites
In the meantime, we also discovered the treasure chest of flavors of the bites on the menu. Upon entering Belly of the Beast you immediately spot the grill where various “Beasty Boys” are made, a kind of hamburger buns but with a twist. We had the “Beasty Boy” with Cajun shrimp and Mezcal aioli and loved it. We also had super crispy sweet potato fries with Hennessy teriyaki sauce – served in a matching treasure chest. We finished with fresh Buratta on beetroot with pumpkin seeds and balsamic vinegar.
