BADHUS have a few locations dotted about the shores of Amsterdam Noord. Though it's the hot-box behind Café Soleil that draws us in. Sauna and cold plunge your way through the seasons. 

Another of Noord's café-restaurant to add to the ever-expanding list. Café Soleil is a bright, beacon of light, due to its playful yellow branding and for its exceptional, laid-back cooking. Funky interiors, shimmering candlelights and Sunday jazz evenings are just some of the highlights. 

De Ceuvel is a biological and ecological heaven built in an old shipyard that is currently home to a completely circular office park - think a hippie, sustainable version of Silicon Valley on a bunch of Dutch houseboats! 

Meander across the wobbly scaffolding past the ‘office boats’ to get the full scope of the project and end your evening at Cafe De Ceuvel for a completely sustainable meal.
