It was the single most thrilling holiday I've had with friends. We went for 4 days/ 3 nights.... ample for getting a good vibe and absorbing the Amsterdam culture, although i wish I could have stayed longer. I genuinely dont remember most of the names of the coffeeshops that I frequented over my trip (no prizes for guessing why), but I do remember Abraxis being brilliant.Oh and Barneys (both the coffeeshop and the restaurant) - had a nice experience watching an extravagant American couple sample some 'boom ting' via the vaporizor.... he was so loud when he exhaled, constantly voicing how it tasted and how he felt.... which I have no problem with as it was hilarious! =] I have to agree with a previous comment from above which mentions the grasshopper. I felt the staff was very unfriendly, didn't seem to care that we were genuine customers. Lowering the age to 16 is a stupid idea, there would be too many 'minors' abusing it and putting a real dent on the culture. Still, I'd love to eventually end up living and working in Amsterdam. Let's hope. Enjoy the haze x I went to the Dam last July. It was the single most thrilling holiday I’ve had with friends.

Barneys is another place were you can get top notch cup winning bud. as its near the station its always a first stop when i been to dam.

The others on the list look a bit commercial, i avoided them and will do again. Im definately going to go back to the Grey Area, provided its not packed (ie more than 5 people) Im going there next week for a day (shame, i really want to smoke more)

The Dutch people were awesome and friendly and helpful to this American. I think they're known for their tolerant attitude towards all people and their recreational habits. Enough with the "ugly American" commentary. It's so tired already. Can't we just celebrate this beautiful city? Katsu is awesome. So is DampKring even if it's touristy it's a cool place to hang out and they have tasty juice. Spacecake at Betty Boop was amazing. Rokerij is legendary and a must visit as is Grey Area. I just love love love Amsterdam. Can't wait to go back. Note...due to the recent changes in the law you cannot get cake outside of Amsterdam. Lived in Holland for a few months last year.

This is located in the red light district just across from the Old Church. It's comfortable, relaxing first floor. I like the green tea and a 50/50 cig. Very cool place and I highly receommend to the American business traveler requriing privacy.

Shame on you, and to ‘paddy’, who labels ‘amsterdammer’ as a Canadian. Who the fuck are you? I’m Canadian, proudly! That puts you right beside that obviously unstable person. Nice list, nice offering of the time to write about it, I read somewhere to go to De Rokerij, or I wouldn’t have known about it, best place I had the chance to go to in two days I was lucky to spend in Amsterdam on my way through Europe.
