There’s a new design boutique that just opened up that would be perfect for this guide! Its called Options on the Damrak! http://www.nats-umi.com/2012/01/16/options/

I visited Cobra Cafe in the Museum Quarter this week as recommended by this guide and was VERY disappointed. The food was terribly average. Not worth being noted on the Design Guide City Guide.

Amsterdam is really beautiful. If you like dutch design you can also visit http://www.mikkili.com/home-en . They sell the dutch brand Gewoon but also Danish brand as Kähler Design, Normann Copenhagen. I think they ship worldwide.

p.s. we visited the zoo it was really great! I’ve been to zoo’s, aquariums, etc. when on other city breaks and been seriously disappointed (e.g. Paris and Barcelona) but Amsterdam’s zoo was a great day out. It’s one of the oldest zoo’s in Europe and is laid out like a park, a beautiful day out! DO IT!!

Just back from a few days in Amsterdam and want to recommend a great bakery we came across when strolling through Albert Cuypmarkt….it’s called Bakken met Passie. The lemon meringue is to die for! Had a lovely morning munching on it in Sarphati Park. Duikelman is a shop you’ll want to visit if you like baking…it’s unreal and also located near by Albert Cuypmarkt.

Great guide! I am heading to Amsterdam next week (sadly only for three days) and this will prove very handy. Any locals have updates? New design shops?
