Café Karpershoek — Restaurant in Amsterdam

It was our last evening in Amsterdam and as tourists on thay day we have visited 2 museums, enjoyed the park and pictureque canals. After having our dinner we wanted to take a seat at this place for a coffee. We waited for some minutes but nobody took our order so we thought the possibility of self service.

Think he needs to realise one thing if it wasn't for us tourists he probably wouldn't get much business. To wrap it up never going to use his...

Stopped for lunch. Before heading to the train station. Ask the board tender if we could bring our luggage in. He said no problems shut down when the waitress showed up. She said whose luggage is that when I told her it was mine. She said that was going to be a problem. Once I looked at the menu and saw how sparse their offerings were, I looked at my wife and said, I don't think we need the attitude, let's find somewhere else when we got up. I nodded to the woman and said we're going to find somewhere else. Thank you, she referred perfect. I think she was very happy for us to leave. Thank...
