	Another item offered at most sandwich shops and restaurants- and which many Amsterdammers consume for lunch-is an "uit-smijter" (pronounced "out-smay-ter," it means "bouncer"), a plate consisting of two buttered slices of bread, topped with either ham or roast beef, atop which is then a fried egg or two! You'll learn very quickly that it is unusually filling (consumed with a glass of milk)-and very, very cheap. Places serving uitsmijters: virtually every sandwich shop in town, plus the big Ruteck's Restaurant, 11 Rembrandtsplein (uitsmijter for 1.85 guilders, service included); the A.T.V.A. Restaurant (a Y.M.C.A.-type establishment) at 290 Marnixstraat; the restaurant of the American Hotel, 28 Leidseplein; The V.A.M.I. Restaurant, 171 Kalverstraat; many others. Home
