A secret place to go was recently revealed to me, and I share it with you now!
When friends come to visit me in Amsterdam, we don't always have the time to go to Club 11 on a Friday or Saturday night (the big club night). I still make it a priority however to visit the restaurant and take a beer at the bar, particularly in the afternoon, enjoying the view over the whole of Amsterdam.
My two friends above invited me to meet them their for a drink, and upon arrival, I couldn't find them anywhere. Finally I called and they said, "Come up onto the roof". Wha?
I went out the back of the restaurant, opposite the side with the elevators, and up the stairs to a rooftop terrace complete with beanbags and a bar. Even the bartender, suspiciously friendly, asked me, "How'd you hear about this place?"
The one way to top the view from Club 11 is to literally top it - move up on a sunny day and chill out in style!
