Amsterdam is a city with a rich history and beautiful canals. In my visit, I felt the city was reasonably accessible except for a few pockets where it was logistically a nightmare to maneuver the canals. Despite that, Amsterdam is such a cool city with so much to offer and has great restaurants and museums.

The food and service were excellent and don’t forget to try the dutch favorite bitterballen. The restaurant is a little small but there is outside seating as well. You will need to take an elevator down to enter the restaurant.
