One (humble) contribution : 



Pothead "youth hostel" :

Amsterdam Visitors Club

...have to get the address back...(I said it was humble !)

And the coffee shop next door



And a few (more serious) saved things, to get it started :



---------------------------------

I would say some of the finest coffeeshops are found in the neighbourhoods

outside the red-light district, go for a walk and stumble on to a place you

can call home.  Our spot overlooks a canal, has few seats and a small but top

quality menu.  The place is called ÒLucky MothersÓ and if you are youÕll be

lucky enough to order theÒSilver HazeÓ.

Well folks I've just come back from an industrial placement year in Holland and consider myself quite

an expert on Dutch Coffee Shops (I've done loads of 

research!). The grasshopper is the coffee shop that all the tourists flock to.

From Amsterdam Centraal (The main station) walk away from the station down the main road. After about

10 minutes you will notice it on your left (It's right on the edge of the red light area and is

pretty good). However I think because it is so touristy you tend to get small portions of grass. Many

of the natives go to "62", which is pronounced 'tway en ses tugh'. I have never been so cannot vounch

for it's quality. but THE best coffee shop that I ever went to was in Rotterdam, called Rhythm. They

only sell two types, skunk and skuff. Skunk is pretty deadly and better than the Amsterdam 'skunk'.

BUT skuff is hashish made from female skunk plants and is absolutely mad. It's expensive but

dangerous stuff.
