Coffee and Cafés of Amsterdam (#)
„In 1714, Jean de la Roque writing of the excitement caused by the exhibition of a coffee tree at the Jardin des Plantes in Paris spoke of the Dutch gardener who tended it: "He told us that there was a great tree of this species in the Hortus Botanicus of Amsterdam whose height was equal to the second story of a house and proportionally as large. That great tree came originally from Arabia, brought from there very young and transported to Java. After some stay, it came at last to Holland where it grew to perfection.“

„Inside, on the ground floor of the Film Museum, is the Cafe Vertigo. After working hours, around six to seven in the evening, the place is mobbed - no matter what day it is. Ordering a drink takes a bit of perseverance as everyone crushes up against the counter waving guilders at the hassled bartender.“
