75 LindengrachtItalian classic in the Jordaan
A hidden gem in a more quite neighborhood in Amsterdam (Prinseneiland), which is nice to walk around in as well! Food is exquisite - 3 or 4 course meals (very affordable). Again also a great terrace for having lunch or dinner outside! Also by the Caron family.

To do
My best ‘to-do’ tips for wonderful days in Amsterdam
Large area in Amsterdam with a park, several restaurants and lots of activities. I recommend walking around, having lunch at Cantine de Caron and ending with some fun (arcade) games at the TonTon club!
The whole area has a unique, industrial vibe that matches perfectly with its cultural leanings. It is easy enough to spend entire evenings wandering between Westergasfabriek’s long list of attractions, which include restaurants, music venues, an arthouse cinema and the largest coin-op arcade in the city.

A once in a lifetime dinner experience. BUT you need to book in advance! A special boat takes you to the island on which you get a 5-course menu with fresh regional products. Very much loved by locals for datenight!

The neighbourhoods I like to spent most of my time in Amsterdam
Amsterdam’s new hip area, the uptown, also known as Amsterdam-Noord, is full of things to see and do. It officially became part of the city in 1393 and used to be an area where heavy industry was concentrated, but nowadays artists and young people have populated the area, making it the perfect mix of the urban and the creative. Take a free ferry there from Amsterdam Central and enjoy!

One of my favorite neighborhoods to just stroll around and enjoy the lovely view of Amsterdam. A charming neighborhood with a rich history. Along the canals and in the narrow streets of the Jordaan are independent stores, cozy pubs and hip eateries. Stalls at the Noordermarkt sell jewelry, clothes, antiques and organic food. A must to walk around!

De Pijp (The Pipe), a residential neighbourhood situated in the south part of Amsterdam, was previously home to the working class. Now, it’s one of the city’s most hip and trendy areas, bursting with cozy cafes, diverse restaurants and a lively nightlife. You'll find the Sarphatipark to walk around in, The Heineken Experience, The Albert Cuyp market (local food market), and great bars and restaurants - among which Cafe Caron and Petit Caron (must visits!)
