The Kinderkookkafé (Kids Cook Café) is a fun and unique restaurant located near the Vondelpark. Here children (ages 5 to 12) do absolutely everything to help run the restaurant, including cooking, serving, bartending, tidying up and running the cash register. Like any other restaurant, you can stop by for a meal, but they also host children’s (birthday) parties, special dinners and cooking courses. If your child would like to play chef for a day, you need to make a reservation.
