Guidebook for Amsterdam
Food Scene
Go here! this is amazing! Please make sure to make reservation for dinner, otherwise just go there for drinks or coffee etc. open from 10:00 till 02:00 except on mondays when they are closed. In the weekend they also open up the old school next to the place and have underground deep/tech parties with are pretty good! Remember its only 8 minutes walking from our home and worth a visit to chill out or have great dinner!
(not to be disappointed: if you see the place during day it seems closed in front. But walk on street further between office buildings and go left en left. you will see :)

nice evening sun! nice place! The best way to walk is trough the park because of nature. Its fairly easy, you walk from our house to the park just one street away and when you enter turn left on the main road in the park (bikes and walking). Just walk to end of park where you find a school on the right side. turn left there and walk 5 minutes straight to you see the bridge. before the bridge you will find the restaurant bar. If you walk a few hundreds meters more, you will walk straight into the Vondel Park, which you also must have seen. It’s always crowded with People walking, sporting or just having BBQ etc. People sometimes compare it with central park in New York. It’s the oldest park in Amsterdam.

This is of the beaten track and is a mix of nature versus industrial and warehouses. It's like the sixties layback good food and nice drinks and a beautiful view! A real hidden treasure where you will find not that many tourists.
