Bisous Amsterdam: at this spot in De Pijp you'll feel like you're abroad
Bisous Amsterdam might just be one of the most original restaurant openings of the year so far. The space that was once home to Restaurant Floreyn is now the new home of Bisous Amsterdam, where you can dine in a Parisian atmosphere.

Why you want to spend an evening at Restaurant & Bar Bisous Amsterdam
heart De Pijp Bisous Amsterdam has recently opened its doors – on Albert Cuypstraat, to be precise. This boutique brings Zeeland roots and Parisian glamour to our capital, according to the owners. A seductive spot with a stunning interior. The owners of Bisous enlisted the help of the Belgian interior design studio JPDEMEYER&CO They're all in for this major project. The building is a whopping 170 square meters, and is decked out from top to bottom with red items, decorations, and Parisian boudoir influences. With a modern twist, though. Bisous isn't a trip down memory lane, but a contemporary spot where you go for a night out to remember. Owners Lowie Jansen and Bas Noorman felt the need for an internationally oriented, engaging venue where you'll linger long after dinner. So, at Bisous, you can stay until the wee hours. And you'll want to: once you're inside and experience the world of Bisous, you won't want to leave.
Menu Bisous Amsterdam
The menu at Bisous Amsterdam is diverse and perfectly complements the vibrant interior. Think oysters and other French classics, traditional cocktails, and smaller dishes to share (especially the appetizers) with the rest of your party. Main courses are best ordered individually. Of course, a leisurely meal isn't complete without a good glass of wine or bubbly – and Bisous has made a real effort to ensure that as well. This is one of the reasons why Bisous is the ultimate destination for true wine lovers. But at the same time, every bon vivant is welcome.

The first weekend in Amsterdam that actually feels like spring? I can't wait to spend time on the terrace this weekend and just cycle around town and go to the market for some shopping in the sun :-) 🌞.
YES dears; I'm back from vacation and fully ready for Dutch spring, long lunches and spontaneous dates with my favorite city Amsterdam.
This weekend is packed with fun things to do! From an Italian market in West with @zicami_market, to the @tableware.amsterdam pop-up sale, treasure hunting at the @ijhallen and the @nocknock.art fair. There's something for every day!
And is it just me, or is the wave of new restaurant openings huge this year? In the full weekend guide I keep a weekly updated list of the new places to check out.

Note to self: always leave room in your suitcase for souvenirs. During my ski trip to Méribel, I popped into the local pharmacy just before leaving, and these are the beauty products I took home.
They've been tested extensively and are all more than YLBB-approved. Save them for your next trip to France (or your online beauty store).
Which souvenirs always make it back in your suitcase? I'm curious!

Looking for a stylish winter sports destination in France? Méribel is one of those places where everything is perfect: beautiful ski-in/ski-out hotels, excellent restaurants on and off the slopes, wonderful spas, and, if you're feeling energetic, après-ski.
I was there for a weekend without my little FAM, but I knew straight away: this is also perfect for the whole family thanks to the many green and blue slopes, so we will definitely go back!

Taking the train to your ski holiday? I say go for it! Door-to-door via Paris (Eurostar + TGV + bus) to Méribel in just over 10 hours. I found it very relaxing!
And of course it would be even more fun to add a night in Paris to it next time.

While I'm currently hopping from hotel to hotel and neighborhood to neighborhood in Bangkok (all in the name of “research” and new food hotspots for the new LITTLE BLACK BOOK 😉). Back home, Amsterdam is serving peak weekend vibes.
Think: Dim Sum Sunday in Noord, vibrant Chinese New Year celebrations across the city and a Vietnamese Tết feast at @yen.diningbar. Add market gems like the @le.temps.perdu.brocante pop-up in Oud-West and @themakermarket at De Hallen, and your weekend basically plans itself.
And yes, make time for ARTIS: there are now two elephant calves and they're too cute. 🐘🐘 Instant serotonin incoming, I promise!

The new lunar year begins on February 17th, and in the Netherlands, Chinese New Year (as you might know it) is becoming increasingly celebrated.
From lion and dragon dances in The Hague and on @dezeedijk in Amsterdam to full-on Oriental dinners at @rongastrobar. Looking for something creative? Check out the weekend full of workshops and a fun photo booth at the Wereldmuseum in Amsterdam and Rotterdam.

Always a good idea. The cheeses come from De Kaaskamer, so yes: this is next level. Perfect if you love to mix & match.

Here they serve the best Classic Gruyère cheese fondue. No fuss, just great flavour. This is cheese fondue exactly how it's meant to be.
