My favorite place for lunch, dinner, drinks and actually for breakfast too. Good food, amazing interior design, affordable and closed to my favorite museum "Micropia". It's close to Artis zoo. You can see pink flamingos paradise if you walk to the end of the garden. For dinner in the weekend I would make a reservation.

The area used to be part of the Dutch Marines, is just open last year to the public. It has a lovely view over the Eastern Dock and a fire place.

Indonesian food became a unmissable part of Dutch food culture and we love it. At Warung Pas, a small toko style restaurant close to the ferry Buikslotermeer, they serve authentic dishes from all over the Indonesian islands.

Two minutes from the apartment, just next to the " Spar" Supermarket- you can find our neighborhood typical Dutch brown cafe. According to an urban legend, in the 17th century a visit to your local dive bar, could end up waking up on a ship sailing to Indonesia..

My favorite music venue. It's used to be a church, has a lot of concerts and dance evenings. Check their program:https://www.paradiso.nl/
Notice: they have another location, in Noord (the north of the city). So if you see "location Noord" You have to take the ferry to the Eye. The ferry leaves behind Central station. It's quick, free and fun!

a tip: every hour the lab scientist come out of the lab to explain about the museum and microbes.

Sightseeing
You can have a coffee the beautiful "Waag". It looks like a castle, it used to be the place where they weight the goods coming from abroad. We tell Dutch kids scary stories that it's called the Waag ("Weight") because they use to weight the witches there.. (don't be afraid it's a legend).
Did you know that the word "stocks" (from the stocks market)
actually drives from a Dutch word? The word "stock"(stok) means a "stick" in Dutch. They use to measure goods from the ships with sticks. Ans there you go: stock market!
