Agree with Rob, only thing is you've got Basjoes weed menu on your site where the hash menu should be.

It has been fixed, you now get the hash menu when you click for it.

You may have to refresh the page to get rid of that nasty old bad link.

To keep the tourists away. When you eat with a local, you find many excellent dining establishments that the tourists just don't know about. As soon as the tourists find out about them, they just seem to go to hell in a hand basket.

Nice report man

Looking at the Hash menu for Basjoe and saw Terminator at the bottom for €50... what is that shit?

Are you not a tourist ?

I've been coming here for over twenty years. I think I have advanced a little beyond a tourist. Louise, my hostess looks upon me as a stepson. So that in itself makes me quasi Dutch. My friend/boss in the US is Louise's real son and drills me almost daily on all things Dutch.

A tourist, only marginally.

Not to be out of order.
But either you are or you aren't.
I have family in Berghem and I stayed in Alphen aan den Rijn for a while , but no matter how many times I visit I'm still a tourist.
Even with a Dutch boss .
If you don't stay there , you are indeed a tourist sorry.
I always chuckle when people on here bang on about touristy places , when they've just stepped off a plane from the States or the UK.
Anyone who isn't a resident is sorry to say a tourist , which there is nothing wrong with incidentally.
This is not a flame so please don't take it that way, It's just a fact.
