Re-awaken your senses at an unusual dinner in Amsterdam and discover what it is like to eat in complete darkness! Unlike any ordinary restaurant, the experience plunges you into a world of sensitivity you may never have felt before, and takes you on a journey through taste, sound and touch. You will be seated in a pitch-black dining room and served by blind or visually impaired wait staff. They have been specially trained to serve meals in the dark, and will offer guidance and reassurance for sighted guests. Upon arrival, you will be welcomed in a lighted lounge area. Check your coat or bag in the cloakroom, as you won't need anything but your senses. Once you have ordered, you will be guided into the darkened dining room. Then, experience your food as the visually impaired experience it; and discover new taste sensations with the rest of your senses.

Dinner in the Dark Amsterdam

What a different, interesting, & fun experience. I was in a completely black room. The host/food server & wine server both did such a good job at making sure I didn't hurt them or myself. They were great at instructing me on where items were. I had the 4 course meat meal & it was excellent; however, I wasn't able to correctly guess what I was eating. Haha. It absolutely educated me on a small portion of what the visually impaired go through. I definitely recommend trying it.

Unique

I’m so glad we took the time to do this unique experience—it was absolutely worth it. I would highly recommend it!

Excellent experience

A wonderful dinner experience in the dark. Knowing what it is like for the blind is a lesson that is needed to remind ourselves to think of others and what life is like without one’s senses.

Take the time to...

Take the time to experience it. It was eye opening literally in the dark. Every person without blindness must experience it.

Brilliant.

This was the most bizarre dinning experience we have ever had. The food was amazing and the staff superb. Would do this again.
