Spaces & Places - Meatless District

Where Meatless District, Bilderdijkstraat 65-67, 1053 KM Amsterdam, Netherlands 

What A delicious vegan restaurant in Amsterdam’s Oud-West, a quirky up-and-coming neighbourhood.

Why you should go The food is delicious and would appeal to vegans and non-vegans alike. The minimalist décor is beautifully done, with exposesd wood, wildflowers in cider bottles, and hanging lamps.

What to bring Your appetite.  

What not to bring A fur coat.

Look out for Artsy locals, wearing sleek Dutch fashion. They’ll probably be walking in with their dogs who are welcome too.

Dear January...

And how do you make us feel better about all our hangovers, overdrafts, and failed resolutions? You slap us round the face with the January exam period.

Hi, January, I know you're quite busy right now guilting people into joining the gym and starting a new diet, and you're probably still cleaning up after all the NYE parties, so thanks for taking a moment to read my letter.

(Lots of people are calling you Dryanuary or Veganuary these days, but I'll stick with Jan if that's ok.)

You're the first chapter of the new year, the month that gets people into new activities, and new starts. Supposedly. It doesn't always go that way, does it? January 12th is apparently the day most people give up on their resolutions. So that means for the majority of January people sit around feeling a bit hard done by.

At least you help businesses. Gyms bloody love you. So do firework shops and Champage distributers. And what's with January sales? We *know* they just raise prices in November and then lower them again so we think we're getting a bargain. We know all that. But do we still fight tooth and nail to get into every shop with a red Sale sign? Of course we do. 

By the end of all the festive nights out, "investing" in new habits, "catch up" meals with friends, and sale surfing, we're broke. 

And how do you make us feel better about all our hangovers, overdrafts, and failed resolutions? You slap us round the face with the January exam period. 

Now that's just unfair, Jan. You need to give us either festivities OR life-influencing deadlines. You can't have it both ways. December has the right idea. December eases us in with end of term shaningans and gives us time off from responsibilities. Then in you swoop to drop us into reality.

So how about a deal this year, January? Maybe this year you'll help us get through a few more of our resolutions. Maybe this year you'll let us off from the hangover train. And please, please Jan, help us out with the exams a bit this time?

Whilst you're at it, have a word with your mate March about this whole Brexit thing. See if you guys can sort that out, yeah?
