Jimmy Woo’s
Korte Leidsedwarsstraat 18
Amsterdam has never seen anything quite so luxuriously cosmopolitan as Jimmy Woo’s. You too can marvel at the lounge area filled with a mixture of modern and antique furniture and then confirm for yourself the merits of its ‘Golden Gnome’ award in 2003 for a sound system that takes an urban soundtrack ranging from hip hop to garage and kicks it screaming into the Amsterdam ether. Fellow Gnome-winners, lady-DJs Wannabe a Star & Miss B-Have (www.wannabeastar.net) keep the crowd pleased on Saturday nights. Even Pharell Williams hosted a private party here, so wear your diamanté thong. If you have problems getting in, cool off across the street at sister cocktail bar, Suzy Wong (Korte Leidsedwarsstraat 45, 626 6769).
