About us

Welcome to La City Lista

Welcome to our corner of the internet, where we dish out the best of Amsterdam’s culinary delights! We’re Gende and Marlies, two food-loving besties on a mission to make your taste buds dance.

Meet Marlies:

Hailing from the beautiful Netherlands, Marlies sees food as a way to savor life. Raised on a quaint little farm, she learned to appreciate nature and all its bounties from a young age. A self-proclaimed lover of “la dolce vita,” Marlies enjoys the finer things in life, especially when they come in the form of delicious food and drink. In addition to her culinary passions, Marlies also crafts artisanal soaps, blending her love for nature and creativity into beautifully scented, handmade pieces.

Say Hi to Gende:

Born in the heart of Kurdistan, Gende was raised in a vibrant culture where food transcends mere sustenance. In her world, every meal is a celebration of family, community and deep connections. She’s a certified coffee aficionado, always on the hunt for the perfect brew, and has an undeniable weakness for exquisitely crafted cocktails. For Gende, sharing good food isn’t just about the flavors, it’s about sharing tradition and creating memories. This passion is at the heart of everything she brings to our site.

We’ve been friends for over 11 years, and our shared passion for good food, great drinks, and living life to the fullest has brought us here. Whether it’s uncovering a hidden gem of a coffee shop, finding the coziest bars, or the most mouthwatering restaurants, we’re your go-to gals for discovering Amsterdam’s finest.

Join us as we explore, taste, and toast to the good life in this vibrant city. Here’s to unforgettable meals, shared moments, and the joy of discovering something new together. Cheers!
