Looks like you all had a jolly good time. :) I love Amsterdam, but haven't been there for 5 years. Hope to plan something soon though.
I'm afraid the idea of trying every dish has been a bit of a failure for me. It diminishes the unique taste of each dish, and kinds of dilutes the whole experience. So I always go for only one dish at a time.
I can just never decide, when ever I'm wish more people it's great to order a selection and mix and match. I guess the whole sharing concept comes from my Asian roots
