I love Amsterdam, the Dutch do not have the greatest food though. Except the licorice and pancakes. We were there a couple years ago but nothing stands out. I have a friend living there so I will drop him a note and see what he says.

I can't believe you mentioned the licorice. I love Black Licorice and when I was there, I went into a candy store and they had all kinds of licorice and I was so excited. I wasn't so happy after I tasted some of the ones I bought. For some reason, they like to put a lot of Salt into their Black Licorice. Some of the ones I bought, I couldn't eat. I still haven't figured out why they would put that much salt into Licorice.
As for restaurants, I only ate at one restaurant in Amsterdam. It was called "Eet Cafe Mlord". I ate there two times and both time it was very good. This isn't a fancy place, jus a neighborhood family restaurant with good prices and good food. I haven't been to Amsterdam in 15 years, so it might not even be there anymore.
