If you order food here from the food at the counter you will find it is cheaper than directly off the menu - and their food is fantastic. A bottle of Spanish white wine (esmarelda I think) and your experience couldn't be better.

The famous red light district - an experience for even the most conservative. Illuminating and a conversation starter - if you feel like debating the two sides of this topic.

You can also catch the free ferry from behind central station which will take you over the Ij river to Amsterdam Noord. Great with bikes so you can carry on exploring the north side of the city. The views over the water of the hustle and bustle of this vibrant city are great
