Bakeries in Amsterdam, Netherlands

Alton Brown's books generally give both weight and volume measurements, as he's a big proponent of measuring by weight. Other than that, I'm a big fan of British cookbooks.

This is a good question. I'm always converting recipes to weight and I use [this](http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipe/master-weight-chart.html) and also [this](http://allrecipes.com/howto/baking-ingredient-conversions/) sometimes as well.

[Bravetart](http://bravetart.com/) has some really nice recipes. It's not metric, it's imperial, but she works with weight instead of volume, and there's some really good conversion tables from imperial to metric online, like [this](http://www.metric-conversions.org/weight/)

Affordable can be a pretty wide statement. But some tips [pinsas](http://www.pinsasrestaurant.com/) simple ikea interior but great prize winning pizza pizzas cant remember that well but i believe about 10 to 16 euro per pizza. A bit more fancy wit a great view and a place i ised to go often before i got kids. Is rem-eiland a 3 course dinner used to be 32 euros . Great for a date

Carousel Pancake House is worth a visit, I'd recommend their poffertjes.

For pasta, try Spaghetteria, one near Bellamyplein and another in van Woustraat.

Can't go wrong with Vapiano. There's also this: http://mijndaghap.nl

I ate Pho at some asian restaurant on a corner of the Leidscheplein, pretty affordable and tasty too.

Does anyone else think the Pancake Bakery missed an awesome opportunity to go by the "Pancakery"

Bar Boca's is my favorite place to eat out, they have great wine and great food and it's dirt cheap

Febo. But I'm not quite sure that it qualifies as a restaurant...

I love this tiny Indonesian restaurant called Bunga Mawar on the Zeedijk. It's run by an old Indonesian couple and it has a very simple menu. It's such a lovely quiet little place and the food is delicious.

Il Palio near Leidseplein! Pasta, pizza, and lasagne for 5 euro, and is pretty good for that price.

The fries from Frites uit Zuyd on Ceintuurbaan were awarded "best in galaxy" or something like that by someone, so maybe that's worth a try? Also, Riaz on Bilderdijkstraat for some damn fine Hindustani Surinamese food.

Just visited last week and went to Omelege or something like that. Pretty cheap and good food, brunch place I guess. Also try Piqniq. I went there and it was very tasty. Will definitely go back to these places when I study there next year.

Hakata Senpachi near the RAI is a very good authentic Japanese kitchen

And New King on the Zeedijk, good Chinese kitchen.

Christina is super nice and her products are excellent and delicious! https://www.facebook.com/vanmoss.nl/
