The food comment above surprised me! I always think of Amsterdam as fairly uninspired food (no offense, just in comparison to other cities I've visited). But I haven't been to any of the high-end restaurants, perhaps next time I'll try a couple out.
They aren't necessarily 'high end' in the sense that I think of U.S. restaurants. Choux's 7-course tasting menu costs 60 euros. That is a great, great deal for the kind of food they delivery. John Dory was 5 courses for 55 euros. A lot of restaurants, when we were looking them up, tended to have tasting menus that averaged ~10 euros a course. Very reasonable, IMO.
