You only need ask a handful of bartenders to figure out that Door 74 is Amsterdam's finest cocktail establishment. So we say, head to the next offering from big Serge, the man behind Door 74 and now Mystique.

Mystique is a place to eat and drink. Eat on the ground floor and get loose in the basement. The cocktails are great: either take your pick off the menu (all worldly and lead by spices and heritage), or tell the bartender what you fancy and he'll fix you right up. We went for mezcal-based drinks. Do it.

It's candlelit, kinda sexy and perfect for a hot date. Eat charcuterie or get in on the finger lickin' ribs. Just don't rush, you'll want to spend some time in here.
