Great for hungry people as it is an all-you-can-eat concept. The food itself is not haute cuisine, so do not expect that. But there's a high variety of different food choices, both Asian and European.

This Syrian restaurant has great reviews and is right on the corner. They serve BBQ dishes and sandwiches, such as Shish taouk and Kebab. Try the Kapsalon which is actually a Dutch invention but based on middle eastern food: fries with on top shoarma, cheese and salad. They also have Kubba & Sambousak as side dishes.

City/town information
Muiden is a nice place to cycle through. Have a drink at the lock and watch the ships pass by, if the weather allows it. If not, there's always still the Muiderslot, an interesting castle that you can visit.
You can also take the boat to Pampus, an artificial island holding a sea fort built in the late 19th century & now open to summer visitors.
