An Amsterdam Bar


We only had one night out in Amsterdam, and, after wandering around, wound up at a bar that was everything I imagined it would be. Populated primarily by locals with cracked peanuts on the floor, the bar had a beautiful large painting on the wall. Our beers were solid, but we wished we'd sprung for cocktails. The hard alcohol looked even better than the beer.

Also, a word about the food in Amsterdam: it was amazing! Perhaps this is just due to the fact that I love smoked salmon, but every menu we looked at there was extremely enticing -- well, when we could find a restaurant, that is. There appear to be far more bars than restaurants in the city!


Suggestions on where to go next time we're in Amsterdam are extremely welcome - it's a hard city to find your way around!

Next stop: Barcelona
