• Having a coffee at Van Harte -

  After fleeing Bakker Nel, we went to a place we passed in the same street called Van Harte. It looked more inviting than Bakker Nel, so we decided to have a coffee here. The place was quite busy, but the crowd looked a bit wannabe trendy, so you have been warned.
  Two girls were running up […]

• Pata Negra tapas at Pata Negra -

  Since my spanish in-laws were visiting for an extended weekend, we went to have dinner at Pata Negra yesterday. Being a spanish tapas restaurant with spanish decor and spanish waiters I thought it was a good choice. Having spanish speaking in-laws gives you some inside information too! There are 2 Pata Negra’s in Amsterdam, but […]

• Tapas at Pompa -

  Ok, after being snubbed at Bagels & Beans, we went around the corner to a place called Pompa. It’s a kind of mediterranean restaurant with pasta’s and stuff, but since we just had a snack, we only checked out the tapas menu. The girl who came to take our order was very friendly. Since we […]

• Tibetan momo at Tashi Deleg -

  Tashi Deleg has been around for some time in the Utrechtsestraat. Before it had only a Tibetan menu, but I think business was not going that well, because they closed and when they reopened, they also had a Indonesian menu and added the name of the Indonesian restaurant down the street to their name. Anyway […]

• Lunch in the sun at Go Freshshop -

  Another beautiful day in Amsterdam, so we tried to find a place outside for eating lunch. And with luck we found the Go Freshshop just off Rembrandtplein going towards the Amstel river. They had put a small terrace outside, which was still catching some sun, and as we arrived, another couple left, so we […]

• Boney fish at Restaurant Amsterdam -

  Our dinner at Restaurant Amsterdam started on a low note. The reservation that was made could not be found. Fortunately it wasn’t a busy night, so there were still tables free. Restaurant Amsterdam is located in an old factory building, which gives it a very distinct atmosphere. After being shown our table, we placed our […]

• Dutch-Spanish tapas at Kelderhof -

  Some Spanish in-laws were visiting again and after roaming the streets of Amsterdam in search of a place to eat, we ended up at a tapas place of course. This restaurant, just off Leidseplein, is a bit confusing though, since it’s actually two restaurants in one. One with a a la carte menu and an […]

• Mexican delights with Alfonso’s -

  This is a shining example of how a restaurant is to operate in a customer oriented manner. Alfonso’s is a typical mexican restaurant, although the owner doesn’t look very mexican. But the service is great.
  When we arrived all tables we occupied so we had to wait at the bar for about fifteen minutes. We then […]
