OT-Veg-Friendly B&B in Amsterdam

[Guest guest]

I just got back from Amsterdam and we had the best stay at a wonderful little

bed and breakfast called Apostrophe.

 

The owner and his wife are " flexitarians " but they were wonderful hosts and

provided us with some of the best vegetarian meals I have ever eaten.

 

The company that hired me on to consult on a project made the arrangements, and

they neglected to mention that we were vegetarians. In a country like the

Netherlands that could have been a problem.

 

Not only did they rise well above the task at hand, they set us first so that we

would not have to sit at the table when meat was being served.

 

They are convienently located in a residential community so you can walk to the

trains, shopping, bus lines etc. On Saturday there is an amazing open air

market within walking distance that serves the locals so the prices are lower,

and you can purchase anything from fresh produce to shoes.

 

We had fresh juice and fruit that was purchased from the local tropical shops

every day, along with some of the most amazing breads, and whole grained

cereals! We requested eggs one day and my goodness were they amazing!

 

We requested dinner service and his wife made casava leaves with eggplant, some

delicious white beans, basmati rice pilaf and some other wonderful vegetarian

African dishes that were beautiful to look at and so tasty.

 

They welcome vegetarians and families, their prices are very reasonable, the

facilities are clean and that they will do all that they can to make sure that

you enjoy your stay.

 

They speak Dutch, English, French, Spanish and Twi so if you ever find yourself

in Amsterdam for business or pleasure I recommend that you look them up:
