Scandinavian Embassy Amsterdam
Coffee, coffee, COFFEE!!!
Located next to the Sarphatipark you can find Scandinavian Embassy. A pretty small and cute coffee shop, where most likely there will be a line outside. And when there is a line outside, it's for something that's mostly worth the wait. And let me say this... waiting for your coffee of the Scandinavian Embassy is 100% worth your while. If you were to ask me where you can buy the best coffee in Amsterdam, I would definitely send you to Scandinavian Embassy.
If you are lucky and the weather is nice, you can sit outside in front of the coffee shop and spot people in the Sarphatipark. If you have your coffee in front of you, there is something that is missing. Maybe a little snack? Well, not to worry! If I were you I would order the Cinnabon. The Cinnabons they offer are absolutely phenomenal.
If you have a walk in the morning or have a small coffee break, take your chances and go to the Scandinavian Embassy!

Blindly pick your pizza
Mangiassai is this very lovely Italian place, where all of the pizza makers speak Italian. What do we recommend? Close your eyes and pick blindly.
