L'Angoletto Hemonystraat 18 (676 41 82).
One of the hidden gems of Amsterdam, this little Italian on a corner in Pijp neighborhood. On the menu pizza's, pastas and antipasti, which you eat sharing long wooden tables and benches with the other lucky ones who managed to get in. The chef can be a bit grubby, especially if you ask for parmesan with your Spaghetti a la Vongole, something best not to be tried! Open Sun-Fri 6pm-11.30pm. Pasta e Basta Nieuwe Spiegelstraat 8 (422 22 22). Trendy
pasta restaurant with a twist - the waiters sing opera arias in-between
serving the plates of pasta. Lively atmosphere, popular with large(r) parties,
no group reservations allowed during the weekend though. Make
reservations well in advance.Open daily 6pm-11pm. |

seating on several levels, but nonetheless a spacious and airy atmosphere. On the menu
traditional upmarket dishes, with the Venetian
specialties deserving a special mention. Every dish here is perfect, and this perfection has its price, but Segugio really is worth it. Open daily 6pm-11pm (closed Sun).

to have improved. Very
