Gin and tonic is one of my summer holiday essentials. So when the vakansie is over, and we all start living for the weekend, it’s good to know that there are restaurants who have your back 😉
Gin Fridays at Burger Lobster on Buitengracht Street start at 4pm ’til late , and each feature a different gin special each week to start your weekend with a bang. Here are a few examples:
