I've never wanted to give an ice cream shop five stars faster than I want to give it to Jan Pieter…read moreIjsje. This all little ice cream shop looks like any other gelato place from the outside and came at a time I was trying to squeeze a little in before getting my bags and heading to the train station. Upon entering you are greeted with the typical cabinet of flavours and I my two choices were Stracciatella and Smurf, yes Smurf. Now, when you order Smurf from this place the lights dim a little bit, music starts playing, the Smurf's appear on the TV, and bubbles start falling form the season and all of that is just plain magical. Did I immediately start laughing? Yeah I did, because I was confused and it brought me so much joy. Back to the actual gelato, and guess what, it was in fact good! The gelato was creamy, rich, and had great flavour. Overall, Jan Pieter Ijsje was a great little place to stop and grab some gelato. I might not remember everything I ate and did when I was in Amsterdam in a decade or so, but I can assure you I will never forgot what happened when I ordered the Smurf ice cream.

The pie itself was dry and not as flavorful as the other places we tried. I appreciated that the pie wasn't sweet and served at room temperature and that a slice with canned whipped cream and a coffee was only €9 but that's where it ends. I would not recommend making a special trip here and opt for a bar who serves apple pie.

I wish I bought some to bring back to NYC. Will definitely try to make dupes of these delicious gooey soft cookies. Service is fast, grab and go. They fill your order while you're paying.

There are glass windows where you can watch people making the cookies fresh while you're moving through the line. The cookie is decadent, soft, & warm when given to you. It is perfectly chocolatey with a gooey melted white chocolate center. It is so easy to eat multiple in one sitting- I feel like you can't just order one. You can order them by the single €3, 6 piece (€15 paper box, €20 tin) or 8 piece (€26 tin).

How can an ice-cream shop that only sells vanilla ice cream stay in business? It's that freaking good, and they have been doing it for over 60 years. My wife and I split a small cup, and if we were not going to a party afterwards we would have bought a couple pints to take home.... Can't wait to go back.
