Anyone looking to join these guys for a meal are in for a treat! Simon is an amazing cook, and the conversation over lunch was simply the best. If you haven’t tried this experience because you’re afraid of awkwardness, don’t be! They make you feel at home very quickly.

We had an amazing time with Simon!!! He is such a gracious host, fun conversationalist and great cook. We really enjoyed our evening in Simon's home accompanied by his adorable dogs. We could not suggest a better way to spend an evening in Amsterdam.

Simon and his husband could not have been more charming. I had the best evening in their home. From the appetizer to the succulent coq au vin to desert and the (generous) wine, all was excellent! Thank you guys! Hope to return for another great evening!

What an excellent evening we had at Simon! Food and wine was outstanding as well as Simon's humor and host skills. The house and especially the interior is well worth mentioning, style and class all the way! 5 star dining with great and fun people! Keep up the good work and we wish you all the best with your future plans!
