The great thing about Amsterdam is that it has a relatively small and compact city center, so no matter where you are, you're always close to a great restaurant. Traditional Dutch and European cuisine are just the tip of the cultural ice-berg when it comes to food, and in the hustle and bustle of the city you can always find a quite place to sit down and have a meeting. Just keep in mind that service in restaurants is incredibly slow, so if you are in a rush, it's good to let the server know ahead of time.

Paviljoen Het Twiske has a stunning location on the edge of a lake in an extensive nature reserve. It is located around 5 kilometres north of Amsterdam City Centre, but is well worth the effort of getting there, particularly on a summers evening. As well as the stunning views, the food is also excellent quality and great value...
