FEBO (IPA pronunciation: [feɪbo]) is a chain of Dutch walk-up fast food restaurants of the automatiek type. Founded in 1941 in Amsterdam, FEBO is most notable for this automatiek format: a counter is available for purchasing French fries, beverages, and hamburgers. Other FEBO snacks can be bought from the automats. The primary automat-vended items are krokets, frikandellen, hamburgers, cheese soufflés and such.
According to the company website, FEBO has almost 60 shops all over the Netherlands, with 54 being franchises. There are 22 shops in Amsterdam alone.
Originally a bakery named "Maison FEBO" after Ferdinand Bolstraat in Amsterdam, where the founder was an apprentice baker, the name was later shortened to just "FEBO".

rotterdam's swan
mafalda
Every city should have a great piece of symbolic architecture. In Paris it's the Eiffel Tower; in New York, the Empire State Building; in Rotterdam it's the Erasmus bridge. This cable-stay bridge links the northern and southern halves of the city with a 2,600-foot span in spectacular style. The bridge deck is supported by steel cables slung over a pylon that is bent to counter the forces of tension. Traffic passes underneath the 456-foot pylon as it straddles the roadway. The structure is called "the Swan" by locals because of its graceful posture over the water. The Erasmus Bridge is such a dramatic departure in bridge building that it has even become part of the city's official logo. Queen Beatrix, herself, officially opened the bridge in September, 1996. Shortly thereafter a problem was discovered with the web of cables. They had a habit of vibrating when the wind and rain are just right. The problem was corrected with stronger shock dampeners.
