'Dam fine town

As an Australian, the next statemnt will probably sound like a heresy, and I'm not sure whether they'll let me back into the country after I've said it, but it does need to be said. The Dutch do some of the best hot chips ever.

I can't decide whether it's because they serve them in a cone, whether they often slightly over cook them to crispyness the way I like it, or the fact that they have somthing called fritsause to smother them with (the sause basically being a tasty version of mayonase).

I am currently debating whether I can buy chips as a breakfast food, even though I'm not hungover. It just doesn't seem right somehow...

Also, because almost all my posts invariably end up about food, I should also try to let you know about other things too. I really love Amsterdam for its cosy size, beautful canals and greenery, and the museums. It is possible to aviod the dweebs who come here for their weekends of debauchery if you stay out of the inner area near the station, well, not entirely possible - but Amsterdam is all about a 'look the other way' permissiveness.
