In Amsterdam, the capital of Holland, there is a Children Restaurant. There its manager, cashiers, waiters or waitresses and other mem-bers are all children from 6 to 12 years old. They themselves do all the work, such as cooking and cleaning. These children are from Amsterdam. After learning in school, they may work in the restaurant for four weeks. All of them are willing to be there and they are very proud of the work.
This restaurant was started in 1983 by a woman cook, who wanted to give the children chances to learn something useful for others. And now she is the onlythere, but her job is just to take care of the children.
The restaurant is welcomed almost by everyone. Since there are only 20 seats in the restaurant, it is always full.
So you should ask for a table a few months before you eat there. The price of a meal is $4 for each adult, but much cheaper for children. And it is open only on Saturday evenings and Sunday afternoons.
