Second Nature — Restaurant in Amsterdam

Strange… the experience didn’t really come together. However the food was surprisingly good. Looks rather quaint and cozy. Ordered a “little” of everything and was impressed.

However, some suggestions perhaps to elude the confusion:

The seats are uncomfortably high. I’m 6ft2 and my the seat to table was just a bit off. If the seats were lower that maybe would work.

I’m very happy with this new neighborhood. It’s really elevated my food schedule during my lunch time as a practitioner, as we need to take care of ourselves and eat healthy in between clients.
