6. BREDA – Restaurant Amsterdam

Breda AmsterdamWe love great food and great eating experiences. In central Amsterdam on Singel, not far from the Royal Palace in 2013 a wine bar and restaurant opened called Wannemakers. It was very good and we loved to go there, but it never caught on. It was then taken over by a Dutch family from Breda and they changed the name to….wait for it….BREDA. The emphasis is really on great, great food. We know that many foodies in Amsterdam go crazy for this place. You will need to reserve for the evening, but they also have a great lunchtime menu. So now you know !

8. ARTIS Zoo

Artis Zoo must be one of the best in the world. The variety is amazing and it is impossible for children to get bored there. Zoos are expensive places to maintain and the entrance fee might be considered quite high. However, when you take a membership card for the year you can go there an unlimited amount of times….every day if you want. With small children this is a great way to keep them busy and happy. Here is the link to the membership info:

Ton ton club AmsterdamA great Amsterdam tips for the fellas…For a different night out you might want to go to the Red Light ! Well, that is where the TonTon club is. It is a cool bar filled with old school arcades games and pinball machines. It is a great idea for something a bit different. The website does not do it justice, but the info is there and actually there are three sites now.
