Bitterballen, and chips with satay sauce :-P

Just returned from a wonderful three days in Amsterdam, staying in an old barge on the Prinsengracht canal.

Thanks to the helpful and informative Dutch VT'ers in the Amsterdam forum, I set out determined to sample some of the Netherlands snacks. So I am now addicted to bitterballen, and chips with satay sauce, yum, dribble. Washed down with excellent beer, of course.

Pros:"Canal boats and canal life. Laid back. Nice beer. Everyone speaks excellent English."
Cons:"Long queues for the popular tourist sights. The risk of being run-down by a cyclist."
In A Nutshell:"A watery, friendly city to enjoy at a slow pace"

 Just let me know, when you are around again. I have to explore De KAS too. Just recently I helped a guy who was looking for it to celebrate his wedding anniversary there. PJ
