Today while I ran to the doctor to get antibiotics Samuel & Will
joined our friend Kevin at PANCAKES AMSTERDAM (Berenstraat 39, 1016GH
Amsterdam -www.pancakesamsterdam.com). Will gobbled up the Dutch
pancake which is a bit thicker than a crepe and quite tasty with Goat
Cheese, Spinach & Bacon. Basically you can construct your own as
Samuel did the children's mix which allowed him to place, fruit,
chocolate, raisins, etc on his. I walked in just as they were
finishing to have a bite here and there as well as a delicious large
cafe au lait type coffee (the Dutch name is way to hard to remember).
For lunch before heading to the ship Samuel and I headed to
Amsterdam's top frites spot VLAAMS FRITES HUIS located on
Vortboogsteeg, a tiny street, just off Heilegeweg and the nearby
shopping promenade the Kalvertstraat.
Samuel of course opted for the ketchup, but I too the dae with the
SAMURAI Sauce which was a divine spicy mayo. Everyone sites on the
nearby stoops as the clapboard doors to this tiny spot are opened
every day around 11am or noon (they close by 6-7pm). There are baout
8-9 different mayo sauces and it is worth the trip if you are on the
other side of town, imperitive to go if you are nearby!
