Den Haag

The Hague!

We all have our favorite spots, so why don't we share them? A few of mine:
*Bagels and Beans: a great place for breakfast on Saturdays. Bagels and cream cheese, bagel sandwiches, chai tea, etc. It's a chain. One is on the Fred, a second is in the city center by Buitenhof, and a third is on the top floor of the large book store located in the Passage in the city center.
*Bacco per Bacco: a small Italian restaurant run by Italian men. very good food. no written menu - they just tell you what's available that night. moderate prices. (http://www.baccoperbacco.nl/)
*Eazie: an inexpensive little restaurant with great Asian food. You can order a bowl with your choice of vegetables, meat or tofu, sauce, and rice or noodles for about 5 euro. They also serve soup and sushi. It's around the corner from the Spui movie theater. The food is ready within minutes, so it's a great place to go when you don't have a lot of time for dinner.

*Istana: an Indonesian restaurant close to the Spui and the Hema. It's off a side street, so you have to look for the large Istana sign. The address is Wagenstraat 71-73. A friend recommends not choosing the large shared dish, since you don't get as much food as if you order individual dishes. A ton of food comes with the individual dishes!

Here is a site I came across that offers some ideas for nightlife and more: http://www.worldtravelguide.net/city/649/nightlife/Europe/The-Hague.html
