is it poorer? richer? better? worse? Is European internet cheaper? are EU food prices outrageous? Is European healthcare better? Is Europe safer?

    Food in Europe is focused on quality, whereas in the US the focus is on quantity.

    Not so much in Netherlands, at least. The portions are huge, and as a Dutch person I like to cook more because I cook better than most “restaurant” “cooks” here.

      Gotta find a good restaurant, the cheap, quick or busy places usually aren’t the ones with the best food

        Yeah, it’s either not worth the time or €50+ per person (inc. drinks). I really like going out to eat when I’m visiting other countries.

      I agree. I currently live near den Haag and the food leaves something to be desired. Kind of a surprise that a country so close to France - a culinary pinnacle - hasn’t picked up a thing or two.
