Van Stapele Koekmakerij

you’ll see a line outside this bakery that only makes one type of cookie, and you may ask yourself, ‘is this really worth queuing up for’? yes, the answer is a resounding yes. we went back the next day to buy a whole tin of them. a friend took a detour in the netherlands just to have these cookies again.

also recommend renting bikes and getting the ferry to noord and riding around like a local and getting some food and drink by the water.

also the lord of the attic museum was cool and teaches an interesting bit of history. i won’t drone on, it’s an incredible city to explore. have fun!
