Elza Jo, 31, photographer I was born and raised in Amsterdam. Amsterdam really is my city. It’s a strange feeling to even experience a certain chauvinism towards my city. I genuinely find the place where I live now a lot of fun: de Zeedijk. It’s always messy, too noisy, with too many people, too little space, too much alcohol, too much gossip but at the same time everyone knows each other. It’s like a little village in the big city. I enjoy having dinner at Wilde Zwijnen. The food is delicious and the dining is a total experience. For late night drinks I recommend San Francisco. However, don’t go there if you’ve had too many already, because the door policy is quite strict. Elza Jo’s favourites: Dinner – Wilde Zwijnen Drinks – San Francisco
LOST presents: Top–5 locations in six categories You just arrived in Amsterdam, a city you may have never been before. You want to feel the city, go to the places the locals go, taste the culture and see the newest spots. You want to relax, enjoy, escape and explore, but not like other tourists do. LOST offers you a selection of the very best coffee, art, shop, food, drinks & specials you can find in Amsterdam. And because this city always
changes, we change with it. The selection of the guide is made by locals that have an eye for the cool things, but most of all, love this city. Amsterdam keeps on surprising us every day, and we love the city for it. Let us guide you through our hometown. Get LOST in Amsterdam, like we do.

Top–5 Food George Deli, BAUT, De Koevoet, Toscanini & Rijsel Of course, you could survive solely on ‘kroketten’ and sandwiches with old cheese in this city, but Amsterdam has so much more to offer than that. We’ve handpicked these gastronomical gems that are off the beaten path, for an authentic Amsterdam experience.

1
George Deli U.S.A.
At George Deli U.S.A., the message is simple: honestly produced, high quality deli food. Situated above the Marqt organic supermarket (great to visit

American way or take a little culinary trip to Paris.

“Best deli in town”
55

BAUT
It’s unfortunate that BAUT is only a pop–up restaurant; it’s our go to for breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as after dinner drinks. Besides
56
Wibautstraat 125
serving some of the most exciting food in town (the

De Koevoet
When walking into Koevoet, you step back in time: the interior hasn’t changed in 30 years, making it one of the most treasured places in the Jordaan. The chef creates the most amazing and authentic

Toscanini
The strength of Italian cuisine is its dedication to pure, simple and honest flavours and products. This is what Toscanini is all about: all their produce,

Rijsel
Rijsel is the Flemish name for the Northern French industrial city of Lille; not exactly the place you associate with fine dining. But Rijsel serves up

French food with a Flemish twist, which means high
