The best ice cream of Amsterdam and has great coffee as well. Tofani is only 70 meters in the direction of nieuwmarkt and a must-see during your stay. It has been run by an Italian family for decades and is one of the few authentic ice shops left in Amsterdam. ENJOY

One of my personal favourites is café Schiller at the Rembrandplein (not to be confused with Hotel Schiller just next to it). It’s located in the old stables of the Hotel and has a beautiful art-deco interior. The menu is excellent but still quite affordable. Schiller has great wines and some vegetarian options on the menu as well.

Yes it's quite luxurious, yet totally worth it! The serene garden and courtyard of the East Indies Company's Golden Age headquarters provides Michelin star lunch/dining. The peace & quiet there is a rare find amidst the hustle and bustle of the tourist-packed streets around it.

Sightseeing
An eclectic flea market 3 minutes walk from my place. A fun place to find vintage clothes, old books and just plain weird stuff! Every now and then there's a very big flea market in the North of Amsterdam called the Yhallen, check it out!
