SYRIANA RESTAURANT
Akersluis 8 www.syriana.nl info@syriana.nl Syriana, a restaurant with a Syrian Lebanese kitchen. A new term in the kitchen. The Syrian Lebanese kitchen continues to amaze people. The tastes are a class separately, and a new culinary taste maker. People like the kitchen because it has a lot of front courses. These courses are called maza’s, which is very similar with the Spanish tapas. The Lounge which opened on the first floor of restaurant Syriana, has become very exceptional after an Arabic makeover. We call it: The oasis of pleasure. Its been decorated on an Arabic style with the topic: a 1001 nights. This is an ideal place to relax or just talk about. There is the possibility of smoking the argile ( Arab water pipe). Restaurant Syriana has a room where receptions, meetings, large diners and business events can be held. This space is on the ground floor of the restaurant and is named the Eden room. Our other rooms are also available for events.

PONT 13 RESTAURANT
Haparandadam 50 www.pont13.nl info@pont13.nl Restaurant Pont 13 is housed on an old ferry (pont=ferry) built in 1927. Until the 1990s, it used to travel back and forth across the IJ lake. When it was declared ready for the scrap heap, René Langendijk bought it to turn it into his dream restaurant. Since 2005, Pont 13 has its anchorage at the romantic post-industrial Westelijke Houthavens, characterized by a great deal of cultural development. A beautiful place to be, with a wonderful skyline – the Amsterdam harbor, interesting new architecture, and numerous boats of all kinds. The European cuisine of Pont 13 has an original character, with the Italian slow food tradition as inspirational starting-point. On an open fire organic dishes are prepared. The combination of the décor of the rebuilt ferry, the impressive view, and last but not at all least the slow food kitchen makes this a place where you just love to be. Distinctive are the relaxed, homely atmosphere and the delicious food. In addition, Pont 13 supports cultural initiatives such as music performances.
