Erwtensoep is a thick pea soup, full of fresh vegetables, served with smoked sausage, cubes of bacon, pig's knuckle and bread. Groentensoep is a clear consommé with vegetables, meatballs and vermicelli. And another one is patat.
It would be very difficult to ascertain a 'favorite food' but a famous dutch food that is widely consumed would be Stamppot which is a combination of potatoes and a number of other vegetables, often with bacon added to give flavor.
The national symbol food wise in The Netherlands is its cheese, which got its fame for the large amounts of milk produced by the cows. There is a large range of cheese available. Besides that the people used to eat a lot of potatoes, imported by the Spanish from South America, because the land was very suitable for the growth of the potato. Besides that, the Dutch kitchen has many influences from other countries, mainly from the colony of Indonesia. For example with your French Fries you can order a peanut sauce, More common would be mayonaise (imported from the Spanish island of Mallorca), or a curry tomato sauce (the tomato also imported by the Spanish from South America, mixed with the Indian curry powder)
Honestly I'm not sure because I'm not from the Netherlands Antilles, I'm from a royal country called Trinidad and Tobago.
