Stop one in Amsterdam: Vegabond!
We just finished eating... and drinking.
Got some smoothies.
It's peanut butter but it's green (laughs).
I got a berry one.
The thing about this place is it's 100% vegan!
Everything is vegan, and so Shae got something with cheese on it, but it's vegan.
Our friend Alex who was with us got something with sausage on it,
but it was vegan!
There's a view of one of the canals, one of the many canals, but it's kind of rare to
not have a view of a canal, but still there's a view of of canal.
We're drinking this, and there's hemp in it, so, turn up in Amsterdam.
Turn up in Amsterdam for the hemp in the smoothies!
Juice Brothers hooked it up!
Juice Brothers, no words except for go to Juice Brothers.
It's like not a joke, they have eight locations, they're possibly making more.
They're 100% vegan, all organic ingredients, they have acai bowls, juices, smoothies, snacks,
date balls, a coconut, they have coconut, coconut oh!
You gotta go!
We were here, our mark has been made on the window.
We're at the TerraZen Centre. Delicious, 100% vegan, and
you got to sit in, like, a little communal table and talk to people, because we met
some fun vegans that are actually from YouTube.
John Venus and his girlfriend, Kathrine. I'm putting it all down below, yeah.
Dessert options, it's kind of like Japanese cuisine.
It's Japanese Caribbean, I think? Yeah.
Okay.
We should maybe ask him how you say it. The market name.
What's this market called?
(unintelligible)
Linden...gracht?
"Linden" it means like a tree, and "Gracht" means canal.
Lindengracht!
Okay!
Market.
We're in that market right now,
and we started walking down it and found fresh juices and fresh fruit,
but we also found dried fruit, which you know we love we got our pineapple.
I got, um, banana, dried banana and dates. They don't have any added sugar or
preservatives in them, so you gotta go check out Gotjé if you come to this market!
We made it to Koffie Ende Koeck, something like that. 100% vegan cafe.
Yes, with coffee and cakes. This is the cutest place, it's over by the "I Amsterdam" rainbow pride sign, yeah.
So, it's a lot less populated than the other one, so just come here,
get pictures by the sign and get some vegan goodies and some vegan coffee and
cake, however you say it, "Koeck," "Koeck."
We are at Dophert, which is a completely vegan restaurant as well
that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, and some desserts, yes.
And they also have some, like, beauty products in there (Oh yeah!) that are cruelty free as well!
They describe it as vegan comfort food so they have burgers, fries, cakes.
Yeah, so you should definitely check this out! Mhm.
We made it to the golden temple which is a vegetarian restaurant that serves Indian
and Southeast Asian foods with options for vegans, and they even have vegan dessert,
their entire dessert menu except the banana cream pie is vegan.
Also just the ambience of this place is relaxed, like right now we're just
sitting at a table cross-legged. And there's a dog!
I will say it's kind of an indulgent spot because it's a bit expensive. Just a little bit expensive.
But it's worth it! It's worth going at least one time when you're in Amsterdam.
By the way, I see you're trying to eat with chopsticks.
I am!
I brought you the, no, I brought you the chopsticks for this.
For that!
Actually the traditional way to eat this is use your hands and the chapati.
Ohh.
So you take a tiny bit of chapati, you use either, well, professionally you would go with three fingers
but it's really hard, so you can use four fingers, and then you take a little bit of chapati,
you get whatever you want, a little bit of rice, and you put it in your mouth.
We just got done eating at Bar James which is a completely vegetarian and also very vegan, like, pub?
Yeah!
Yeah, it has really good pub food and we had the best sweet potato vegan burger
Oh my god! Amazing. With vegan sweet potato fries, and mayonnaise!
Which is the thing to eat here, is mayonnaise on your fries.
But, it was vegan mayo!
Best sweet potato, or best vegan burger I've ever had, it was so good!
So yeah, this is in the East side of Amsterdam and we really highly recommend it!
So we just left the Anne Frank house.
It's a little hard to be enthusiastic about this,
but it was a really cool experience, and you have to go.
But if you do go, make sure that you buy tickets online in advance.
It does sell out, but you need to buy a ticket or else you wait in a long line
that wraps around blocks and blocks (for hours and hours) and blocks and blocks.
So, don't do that. We waited about two minutes to get inside, so
do that, go in, you have to go, it's beautiful, amazing experience.
It's sad but it's (well worth it) absolutely worthwhile. There you go, Anne Frank House. Done.
Make it to the Museum Quarter because there's the Andy Warhol and Banksy Museum,
there is the I am Amsterdam sign, and there's the Van Gogh Museum all in one little park,
and there's a fountain and there's bicycles, and tourists, like us, everywhere.
And there's two girls on bicycles crashing into people. (laughs)
And you can go off-road too, when you don't plan on it.
So this is what it looks like at four o'clock in the afternoon if you want to come now,
and this is what it looks like at eight in the morning.
If you're ever in a big touristy area, our tip is to go really early to the hot spot,
touristy spot so that you can go there by yourself and not be
overwhelmed with the amount of people.
Hopefully you can hear us, but, we made it to a place called Madame's
and it's on the 20th floor of...
I don't know what this building is called!
It's next to the EYE in the North District. So you go up to the 20th floor after 9:30pm, it's a bar, and it's free!
It's free, but it's not free otherwise, you have to go after 9:30pm.
If you want, you can take a canal tour. We took the Open Boat Tour, which was awesome,
and the area where you can buy the tickets is right outside of Central Station.
It's goes really slow and it's super peaceful, and you can enjoy it like we did.
I think we've done all that we can do in Amsterdam!
We just gotta eat more! Yeah.
