Re: 2 Weeks, can't wait!!

You might also want to look into a IamAmsterdam museum card. Good for 1 year and you can visit many musuems for free. The card also comes with some freebie stuff and canal boat ride and bike rental discounts, as well. It is really a bargain and I always pick one up for my trip. The iAmsterdam card ...

Re: Space Cake

Paradox has the BEST space cakes. Many of the coffee shops have packaged commercial cakes with barely any THC in them. They also dont taste that good. Paradox has fresh homemade cakes with a good amount of THC in them. Ive been to AMS several times and always eat lots of space cakes, so Ive eaten t...

Re: 2 Weeks, can't wait!!

I know the feeling. I cant wait myself, to visit AMS later this summer. You can catch a train from Schipol to Amsterdam. Schipol has a large main train station within it. You will want to buy a second class ticket to Amsterdam CS (Centraal Station). You can purchase it from the machine or the walk u...

Re: To FEBO or Not to FEBO

If youve never had FEBO, its best to try it and then not like it. Its not quality food, but it will do the job if youre in a fix or have a craving for it, for whatever reason. I seem to eat at least 2-3 fried meat things on each trip out to AMS.

Re: Wok To Walk

WtW is good for late night munchies. Ive ordered many containers of the stuff. Its good enough for late night and sort of healthy. Fresh meat and vegetables.

All this local food is getting me hungry for my next journey into AMS. I really cant wait. So excited for my annual trip.

Re: July 12 - July 23

Subscribed. I may be out in AMS later this July. No dates set but hope to be there late July. You should rent a bike while there, too. I have used Discount Bike Rental in the past and have been happy with them. Bikes work, very reasonable rates, friendly counter person, and no ugly tourist painting ...

You get the best exchange rate by using your ATM card, not the currency exchange booths. In the US, most banks charge high fees for international transactions. CapitalOne Bank is one of the few which does not charge any fee at all. This applies to their credit cards and bank cards for both cash with...

Stroopwafel at Albert Cuyp Market

Just thought I'd mention this as a suggestion for a tasty snack while in AMS. They're these things called Stroopwafel and they sell them freshly made in the Albert Cuyp Market. They're made with two thin waffle discs with some warm caramel inside. They make them right in frontof you and cost 1 Euro,...

Re: General Advice Needed!

Here in NYC, we smoke it straight up without tobacco, although we commonly smoke it in blunts or cigr paper, so in a way its tabacco! Since I dont smoke cigarettes, I always smoke mine striaght up in a joint with filter. I usually bring my own papers (EZ-Wider's) from the New york to roll in AMS. Ha...

TOP 5 Coffeeshops to Visit this Summer

I'm planning to get out to AMS this summer and thought to ask what some of the current favorites are for quality and strength. My first stop will be Amnesia, love that place. Got really stoned in there! Good stuff and friendly counter people. I will also be sure to stop into Paradox for some Space C...
