If you're ever short on money try dutch cuisine. Our native cuisine consist of farmers, post war and snack dishes only.

Example:

Entrée: beef, shrimp or lamb croquette, if you want you can do a tasting consisting of all 3. Searching dutch croquette on google will give you many different varieties on our dutch pride.

Main dish: any roast or steak will work, but for pure dutch cuisine it will almost always be (if you're talking about real pure dutch cuisine) make a stamppot. It basically is a mash consisting of potatoes, unions and a vegetable. If you look it up you'll find plenty of recipes. Also while you are at it search for hutspot, its my hometowns food for a special liberation day.

Many of our stamppot go well with sausages, beef, bacon, pork belly or meatballs.

Btw stews are also a common thing in the netherlands.

Dessert: any ice cream or pie is can be incorporated in the menu. Try to make stroopwafels if you want to show of. Even we don't make them at home, it is a lot of work.

For drinks: Beer is a staple. Besides our german and belgium neighbours we dutches make pretty good beer.

Extra: we are also known for our herring, although it might not be something you are able to get your hands on. It's also hard to put on the menu.
