Amsterdam

De Admiraal Herengracht 319, 1016 AV  map
020 625 43 34
Beautifully located bar and restaurant with a wonderful array of genevas and liqueurs - the chocolate and raspberry liqueurs are particularly good. Delicious up-market food.

De Admiraal
La Festa Italian Restaurant Hazenstraat 64, 1016 SR  map
020 639 16 88
You're guaranteed a warm welcome at this small, local, family-run, Italian restaurant in the Jordaan. Generous portions, fresh pizzas. Calzones and the tomato and mozzarella starter particularly recommended. Very reasonable prices.
Indian Restaurants in Amsterdam This website lists Indian restaurants in Amsterdam. Our favourite is the Balti House at Albert Cuypstraat 41, 1072CL  map
Café Bern Nieuwmarkt 9, 1011 JR  map
020 622 00 34
Traditional 'brown café' on the edge of the red light district. Famous for wonderful cheese and meat fondues - particularly good when the colder weather sets in. Gets very busy so booking is recommended at weekends and during the tourist season.

Small, local, friendly restaurant serving delicious Ethiopian food. Voted the best African restaurant in Amsterdam by Lonely Planet.
