Pancakes in Amsterdam: brunch at the Breakfast Club
If I had to choose a favorite breakfast it would surely be a stack of pancakes. (Confession: or just something from a bakery in Paris). Sometimes I bake them myself, but I find it even more fun (and easy) to eat pancakes at a nice breakfast place. Especially when I’m in Amsterdam for the weekend and I’ve been to the Breakfast Club a few times. Where, as the name suggests, you can order breakfast dishes all day long. So I ate Pancakes in Amsterdam. Every now and then I combine a concert with a weekend in Amsterdam. And since a…

Good restaurant in Bruges Chagall
While visiting the Belgian city of Bruges, a dinner in a local restaurant should not be missed. After virtually visiting quite a few restaurants, our choice fell on restaurant Chagall on Sint-Amandsstraat. Mainly because the menu sounded good and most of the reviews are almost positive. The Sint-Amandsstraat is in my opinion one of the nicest streets in Bruges. The street is car-free, which makes it extra nice to walk through it. When you walk all the way down the street you end up at the Grote Markt. In the street you see mostly brick houses with stepped gables. A…

Brunch in Antwerp
What is a good place for brunch in Antwerp? That question I asked my colleagues before I headed in that direction for a weekend. A colleague tipped the WASBAR and after seeing the pictures on the Internet I was immediately excited. We ended up having brunch at the WASBAR in Antwerp and all I can say is it really comes highly recommended! The Laundry Bar is a chain of restaurants/laundryettes that you can find in several Belgian cities. The concept is the same everywhere, the WASBAR has several AEG washing machines and dryers that you can use for a fee.…

A weekend trip with girlfriends, I love it! Together with Ernestina, her cousin and a friend of her cousin, I went to Eindhoven for a weekend.

Parking in Eindhoven Since Eindhoven is quite a drive from Twente, we left on time. All together we were on the road for almost two hours. Just before lunch time we arrived at the…

Best cheesecake in Prague at petite France
‘This is the best cheesecake I ate in Prague and definitely a reason to come back to the city.’ I said enthusiastically when I was with Ernestina at Petite France in Prague. This French bakery is an absolute hot spot in Prague that should not be missed during your city break. Not only does it look fantastic (and is very photogenic), but their baked goods are to die for! We were on our way to the dancing house when we came across Petite France. The French Bakery in downtown Prague particularly stood out because of its green color. Which matched…
