Here you can order small bites from 5 different Asian countries. One of our best friends designed the interior, so that makes it extra special to us. There's a big terrace.

Parks & Nature

Frankendael is Amsterdam’s only remaining 17th-century country estate. The romantic park has two historic gardens - a period garden and a landscape garden – as well as a sunbathing area and marsh. In the middle of the park is the imposing Huize Frankendael ('Frankendael House') where cultural events are regularly organized. Also in the park are the unique restaurants Merkelbach (in the former coach house) and De Kas (in a propagation house from 1926). A lovely place for a picknick or a walk. There are two playgrounds in the park.

The Oosterpark is a large city park located in Amsterdam Oost. This open green space is filled with ponds and streams, a wading pool for children and plenty of walking paths. Considered Amsterdam’s most multicultural park, it draws a diverse local crowd and hosts a variety of festivals throughout the summer. There is also a 'speaker’s stone', where people speak their minds every Sunday at 13:00.

Really nice playground for children up to ten years. With swings, a soccer/ basketballcourt, waterplay, slides and lots of things to climb on. On weekends and during the summer there's a toilet and a place where you can by small snacks and icecream; it's run by parents from the neighbourhood. You can also bring your own food and drinks (non alcoholic) and have yourself a nice breakfast/ brunch/ lunch at the large tables and benches.
